Why does my tooth keep rising, 18 months after a root canal?

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011
Q.

I have a molar ( #19) that had a root canal 18 months ago. The tooth continues to rise slightly in the socket, and my dentist has to grind the crown down slightly twice. I do wear a splint at night on the upper teeth. I do not feel any pain in the tooth, but as it continues to rise it meets the upper teeth and begins to become tender in the root area. My question is why does the tooth continue to rise, and will it stop rising?

I have experienced pain since my permanent bridge was fitted. Why is this?

Thursday, January 13th, 2011
Q.

I had a bridge done, while I had a temporary I had no problems with pain. Since the day I had the permanent bridge put on I have pain, head ache, ear ache as soon as I have cold or hot foods. When the dentist was placing the permanent I never had anesthesia can this be trauma related? if so, is the dentit responsible for paying any additional treatment I maight need since it was negigence? I’ve been taking Ibiprofen 800 mil 3x a day today is my 3rd day & I don’t feel any better. Do I need a root canal? please advise, Thank you.

An X-ray showed that my root canal filling didn’t go all the way down the canal, is this a problem and when should the pain go away?

Wednesday, January 12th, 2011
Q.

Hello

I had root canal treatment yesterday and concerned that the xray afterwards showed that the root filling did not fill to one of the end of the canals, is this likely to casue problems?

I have been quoted £389 for a veneer. Is this a good price?

Monday, January 10th, 2011
Q.

i have been quoted £389 for a veneer on my upper right incisor. I had root canal on the tooth and now it has started to turn grey. Do you think that is a good price for the work and is a porcelain veneer my best option?

Can I have teeth extracted and replaced with implants instead of root canal?

Tuesday, January 4th, 2011
Q.

I have chronic dental pain in all of my molars (lower and upper) bilaterally. I do have several fillings which will probably need to be replaced and seem to be headed towards root canals in all of these teeth. I also have 2 root canals that are both failing and also very painful so I am reluctant to have more root canal therapy on the other teeth as it seems pointless having them done when they will most likely fail like the other two. I’ve been seen by a professor at a specialist dental hospital and they said my failing root canals would be best replaced by an implant. Is it possible to have most of my molars and two premolars extracted and the teeth replaced with implants instead? How much would this be likely to cost?
