I have been suffering from tooth pain for around 4 years now after having root canal surgery, what’s causing this problem?

Q.
Hello,  i have suffered from tooth pain in my left side canine tooth for about 4 years, which was treated with antibiotics but the pain never went. 2-3 years ago I had a root canal performed on it, since I still experience pain and i have told my dentist several times he gives x-rays every time but says there’s nothing wrong, the tooth has dullness now and looks rather awful, and i now experience pain in the canine but on the right side also it’s very similar pain, but not as agonising. I’m fed up of my dentist I feel fobbed off constantly, I’m wondering if I should demand to be referred to hospital regarding it. I’d be really grateful for your opinion. Thank you.

Hi ,
Root canals are not always successful and you can request a referral but that does not mean the hospital will accept you. But you can try.
There could be another issue and get a second opinion.
