My crown tooth hurts.?
Question:
Answers:
Unfortunately, you need to have an exam by a dentist. Sensitivity and pain to hot and cold with a (stinging) pain, is a dead give away that something is very wrong with your tooth. Sometimes teeth have hidden or extra canals that need treated. Sometimes the RCT fails, or needs to be retreated. Sometimes the margins of a crown are not closed properly, and you will have sensitivity and pain. There are many reasons. The fact is, you won't find the answer without a dental radiograph, and exam.
Other Answers:
Hopefully this isn't the case but if the crown wasn't put on with close enough margins, there is a possibility that stuff could get under it and rot the tooth. If it has been getting progressively worse, then it will require taking the crown off (if there is decay) and then going from there. If it is really bad, you might lose the tooth.
often a nerve will be exposed and it can take a long long time before it settles
it may go away eventually
but you could also have a cavity - and that sadly needs dental attention or it will get worse and cost more
Tooths after root canals shouldn't hirt. I advise you to wait and see what happens. There's not a lot you can do. You can't fix the tooth anymore after root canal. The only option would be to have an extraction, but you propbably don't want that,
However, I'm just an assistant You should go to a dentist for a consultation. They don't cast a lot and in many times they are even free. See what they tell you
