BEST ROOT CANAL SPECIALIST IN AMINJIKKARAI, CHENNAI! A failed root canal is when your treated tooth experiences some type of complication. Such as re-infection, pain, or breakage in the tooth. There are several different reasons why a root canal can fail (more on that in a bit). Not only is endodontic failure painful in most cases, but it also puts you at a high risk of tooth loss. As a general rule of thumb, you should speak to your dentist any time a tooth “just doesn’t feel right.” Pain, pressure, or swelling are obvious reasons to schedule a dental appointment. The best thing to do is to rule out any concerns before they have the chance to get any worse. If you feel any type of pain or throbbing when you bite down on your root canal tooth, schedule a dental appointment immediately. It could be that the tooth is abscessed again or that the root has cracked. Even if you don’t have a major nerve feeding your tooth anymore, there are still other tissues and nerve endings around it that won’t feel right if there’s a problem. If you notice failed root canal symptoms in the days, weeks, or months after your endodontic procedure, make sure you tell your dentist. Even though failed root canal therapy is rare, it does happen from time to time.
