Answer 1

pull it out

Answer 2

I have a similar issue. I had a root canal 2 years ago.I barely had enough tooth to crown but my dentist was able to put one on regardless. It's gold also. But my problem is I still feel "sensation" in that tooth, not pain. I mentioned this to my dentist, and he said that the nerves were not properly removed . What's up with that? I have to live with that little annoyance. Of course there were two different dentists involved, one did the root canal, the other the crown, who's to blame?Sorry for your pain, I feel it too. Good luck!

Answer 4

Yes it could very well be an abscess I'd go to a dentist and get it checked, you may well have to have the tooth with the crown on taken out, if any sort of spit or anything got under the crown whilst it was being placed, it is most certainly an abscess.
