Do we have any sensation on the dead teeth?

Q.
I had 2 crowns at the back upper side replaced and one new one (so they are 3 in a row) and root canal prior to this.. I also had root canal on the other side of my back upper side and these teeth were then filled (2 of them). that was about a month ago and when I bite both sides of these teeth are in such pain that I avoid chewing at all! I Also the teeth that have had root canal are sensitive to cold…I thought if your teeth are dead you can’t feel anything??

Would replacing the crowns with dentures reduce the pain?

Monday, August 24th, 2009
Q.
Please could you give me some advice. I started having pain in my left cheek 3 months ago, the pain then radiated in my top left molar and across to my 3 front (top) crowns, then it went into the corner of my eye down the back of my head in my neck and in my left ear and around my jaw. I had the molar taken out then a tooth next to the 3 front top crowns towards left side, and then a wisdom tooth taken out top right hand side. This was all in the space of a week. The pain after the extractions hasn’t changed. I was told by one dentist that I have grinded my teeth quite severly. I was then diagnosed as having TMJ by a prof who to be fair has been really good. She told me that when I talk I push my chin forwards and said my bite isn’t bad but not great. I think this is because my 3 front crowns don’t meet my bottom teeth anymore and they feel really uncomfortable, they haven’t done for a while. I have been given a splint only a week ago which i know takes time. The pain is still the same it seems to becoming from My 3 front crowns (had them in for 12 Years)had lots of problems with them in the past had a root canal etc, and for a while now the crowns have been petruding forwards and the pressure I feel is horrible I feel like I just want to rip them out. The pain then radiates in all my teeth. I know this is quite a lengthy question but I am reaaly tired of being in pain as it wakes me from my sleep I also find myself having to constantly bite down all the time especially in my sleep. I really need to get sorted as I hate my 3 young children and husband seeing me in pain all the time. I was really thinking of having the 3 crowns removed and replacing with dentures would this be the right move?. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you

Assessment of bite

Monday, August 24th, 2009
Q.
Hi i had new crowns fitted at the front , top and bottom,the right hand side below and the left hand side top. Everything was fine until i had the lefthand bottom done, i ended up with an infection but it cleared up i had a root canal and crowns went back on some of the crowns are also a bridge. From then on which is over 10 months ago i cannot eat anything on that side at all cannot even press down with my finger as it hurst too much. I went back to the dentist twice and one of the answers he gave me was my body could get use to the pain or use sensitive toothpast. I went to see another dentist about 3 weeks ago and he said my bite was wrong, i went back to my dentist today (different dentist as mine had left from that surgery) and he said they were a good job and one of my own teeth at the top may need filing down, never had any problems before crowns. My jaw has now started cracking on occasions but he said that sometimes happens. My tongue on the opposite side of this now has a white patch on it where my tooth is catching on it due to being only able to eat all the time on that side. So what do you think should be my next step i have never been pain free since i had these done. Thanking you.
