A. If the pain is still there you should go back to your Dentist.

I literally just got a root canal today, and bevleie me, its not as bad as people say. Honestly the worst part was being numb afterward because its annoying. My dentist even numbed my gums with this anesthetic paste before sticking me with the needle to apply the real numbing stuff, so you might want to request that. It takes about an hour, and you feel nothing during the process, just hands in your mouth. Also be prepared to open and close your mouth often. Don’t worry, bevleie me. Was this answer helpful?

I rub my fingernail in between my gum and tooth and it really hurts after I already had root canal, what could be causing this? I went to the periodontist and he said my gums were good. Why do I continue to get a sharp throbbing pain and bad taste still when I rub my finger in between my gum and my tooth. The tooth had a root canal so why is there still pain?

Not sure, might be best to stop rubbing it for a while to see if it settles?
