Case Description
I had a root canal done on #29 7 years ago, afterward I had occasional pulsing aches and discomfort. Last month, my new dentist replaced the old crown but I'm stil having the same problem. Also, he replaced #30 molar silver fillings with white fillings. I don't know why I have this aches and discomfort on and off. Is it something wrong with my old root canal treatment on #29? Please advise.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
