Endodontics (root canal treatment)
This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.
Visitor asks:

Kind regards. I am contacting you to ask for help in determining the cause of my pain. After six months of treatment of the upper 6 and 7, I still have pain on touch at the top of the gum all the way to the end of the jaw. The pain is constant and unpleasant, as if there were inflammation somewhere. My dentist has given up and wrote me a referral to an endodontist.  He filled the canals in the teeth mentioned, and now I am  waiting for the fillings. I also had a panoramic X-ray, which showed that the root fillings were fine. The waiting times are long, however, and I am worried and do not know how to proceed. Would it make sense to seek a second opinion? Thank you and kind regards
Tina

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:

Dear Sir/Madam!

You can certainly trust your dentist. In complicated cases, every therapist refers the patient to a clinic where they deal specifically with cases that cannot be resolved in conventional practice. A referral also represents a secondary opinion.

Have a nice day!
