Crown Pain

[Johnny Test]

Hello, I recently had a dental crown for my front incisor, but I feel some pain when I push inward towards the interior of my mouth. It does not hurt when I bite down, and I do not hit neighboring teeth. It has been two weeks since I received my permanent crown and has been 4 weeks since I had a root canal. Is this sort of pain normal?

 

[Dr M]

The root canal might still be settling. Sometimes it can take 3 months for the tooth to be pain free. If the pain becomes more severe, you will have to go for a follow-up x-ray of the tooth.

Thank you, it only hurts when I push it. Is it normal for a tooth to hurt like this after a root canal?

 

[Dr M]

Yes. Some pain is sometimes normal
