So two years ago, i needed a root on one of my front teeth. This particular tooth used to be a peg when i was younger and then got it bonded a few years ago.

The past 2 weeks my teeth were in pain. My gums were very inflammed and red. I went to the dentist and they did a good cleaning. However, i have a few cavities in one area- which is near the root canal tooth.

I can't tell if the pain i'm feeling near the root canal tooth is because of my gums/ cavities or it's the actual tooth. I had xrays taken, so i'm sure they would have noticed if anything is wrong with that tooth.

My one bottom tooth also seems to keep hitting the root canal tooth when i smile or close my teeth together. And when i close that's when it seems to hurt the most.
