I am experiencing pain under one of my new veneers, should I be worried?

Q.
Hi,

I had two porcelain veneers on my canine teeth a month ago. I had a problem with the bite but the dentist did some filing at it all seemed well. However the last 10 days I have been getting pain in one of the veneers, which is sore to touch and also alot of pain moving around that side of my jaw. I went to the dentist and she said i need a root canal she didnt do any X-rays.

Do you think the pain may settle down? The pain comes and goes.

Also wondering why it only started a few weeks after treatment too.

Many thanks

hi Thank you for your email

Without examining your tetth and doing some tests it’s impossible to advise you accurately. The best place to start is always to come and visit us for a comprehensive consultation and examination and then we can figure out what treatment would be best and appropriate for you.

The pain may well settle down on it’s own but it may not. Does it react to temperature changes, particularly hot things? You could come and see us at my practice and I’d advise that you book in to see our root canal specialist , our Endodontist, so that your problem can be assessed correctly

Kind regards

Mark
