Root Canal pain

I got a root canal about 6 or 8 months ago. It has been feeling a little not right for a while , but I woke up this morning and it was actually hurting.

I finally decided to make an appointment with a natural dentist. I hate to spend a lot of money for just one tooth, but I really feel like whatever is wrong with the tooth is holding me back.

I guess I'll probably have to get it pulled and get some kind of denture since it's a front tooth. I wanted to get it pulled originally, but my dentist wouldn't pull it, and my oral surgeon wouldn't pull it. they all wanted to do a root canal, and I would have refused it, except that my tooth was dead as a doornail and infected.

I don't know any options except getting it pulled or re-doing the root canal. Everyone says it's better to keep your own tooth, but I just don't know how I could keep it, not knowing when it's going to start hurting again. Could this just be some kind of bartonella flare-up? I am feeling better now and I don't want to keep having to go back to the dentist.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

I had two root canals done years before my tick bite and never had issues with them. In fact, my dentist said they were beautifully done. After the tick bite, along with a host of other symptoms, I started having pain in the root canal area that would come and go. My dentist was pretty Lyme literate and felt it was Lyme related. I was treating at the time and doing pretty well with other symptoms but still having intermittent tooth pain. After a while the area became so inflamed they had to come out.

I wanted to get dental implants but because I’m chronic I’m concerned that my body will reject anything foreign like it did the root canals so I never did. I was infected 25 years ago when there were no holistic dentists so maybe the one you’re seeing can shed some light on your issue.

I am with magoo2 as this area can harbor all sorts of pathogens as they can completely escape your immune system in this area due to the lack of blood flow. I think it is only a matter of time before this occurs.

FYIf you go to the famous Paracelsus Clinic in Switzerland and work with their leader Dr. Rau you must see their dds first. They have 4 biological dds that is part of their clinic. Lyme, Cancer, IBS-start with the dds
