I had a filling replaced earlier this year and it turned out to be quite a deep one. My dentist told me that it would be sensitive to pressure for a while but if it didn’t subside after a two to four weeks to come back. I did and then he advised as the pain had got better to give it a couple of months and if not then may need a root canal.
It has been several months (trying to get booked in and then getting covid has meant I’ve had to change appointments a few times) and I am just wondering will I still get a root canal or will I end up needing the tooth out. I’m quite anxious re my teeth. I’d like to clarify I only have pain when chewing certain harder foods or if I grind my teeth together. I’m worried it’s been left too long and a root canal isn’t enough.
