In pain
I have a four year old root canal on a molar with crown. tooth #19 Went to dentist for toothache and heat sensitivity with lingering pain as well as cold sensitive. No pressure pain and crown not loose. X-ray shows root canal done properly and opposing teeth are fine. Given two weeks of antobiotics which I've finished and no relief. There is a bit of recession at gum line of this tooth. What do I do now? I have been taking ibuprophen 2-3 times daily for last month.

If there is no pathology identified radio graphically or clinically, possible causes of your dental ache are vertical fracture or nonodtontogenous toothache.seeing an endodontist to rule out vertical fracture and an orofacial pain specialist to rule out non odontogenous toothache is advised.
