Visitor asks:

Hello. I would like to know whether it is normal that after root canal treatment I occasionally taste something from this tooth. It is not a taste of pus draining from the tooth, but rather a taste similar to the bleach my dentist used to disinfect the roots during the procedure. It has already been several months. Thank you for your answer.

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:

Dear Sir/Madam!

If the dental crown has not yet been definitively restored, it is possible that the temporary restoration is not sealing well and that the root filling material is leaking into the oral cavity. The condition is not a cause for concern.

Have a nice day!
