I have pain in my lower front tooth after two root canal and apicetomy can you help?

Q. Ive had problems with a lower front tooth now for years. Nearly a year ago I had a root canal on that tooth, it didnt work, had another root canal and it didnt work, the pain continued, Four weeks ago I had an apicetomy (by an expert in the field) and it hasnt worked the pain continues. When I took antibiotics post surgery the pain subsided. Do you have any ideas as to what it could be and what I should do next? I have been refered to a pain specialist but Im convinced the problem is dental. Can you help?

A. It could be another tooth or just one of those teeth that never settles down, until its extrracted. It sounds like you need to see the pain specialist 1st to see what they say before deciding on the best option.

Can’t pain that doesn’t go away in a tooth be heart related? and how do you find out if that’s what it is.
