Q. Hi I had some root canal work on a front tooth, i had an infection around the bottom of the toth root. My dentist put in an antibiotic pack and placed a temporary crown. This was done a couple of months ago. I now have a little pain from the tooth, it been fine up until yesterday

A.

If there is now pain around the root of the tooth I would recommend returning to your dentist and have them take a follow up xray to see if there is a reocurrence of the infection

Kind regards
