“My pain is not better even after a root canal treatment. What should I do?”
I recently underwent a root canal surgery for the severe tooth pain that I was experiencing. Even after the surgery, my pain still persists. What should I do to treat this

Go back to the person who performed the surgery. If necessary, the tooth might require removal with immediate implant reconstruction.
Likely tooth extraction is required. Follow up with your dentist.

It may take a few weeks for the pain to resolve. Otherwise, check with the person that performed the procedure. And it the took needs to be removed, it's best to think about whether an implant might be desired in the future because we often graft when extracting a tooth if an implant is being considered. Sometimes implants can even be placed at the time of extraction. But let's hope the tooth can be saved :)
