Question
i have done root cannel 10 month before however from few days i feel tooth ache after i eat something.what is the reason behind it? Please suggest me.

Answer
Dear pooja,

Unfortunately, not all root canal treatments are successful. I would recommend that you request a referral to an endodontist (root canal specialist) to assess the quality of the service your received, and a re-treatment if this is feasible and the specialist believes that it would help resolve your symptoms.

Hope this helps...
