I recently had a root canal done on a tooth that has been dead for about 20 years. I'm 36 now and decided its time for braces.never had any pain in the tooth,but in order to get braces a root canal needed to be preformed. Low and behold a few days later after the canal was completed I am experiencing sinus pressure on my forhead near the bridge of my nose, no other cold sumptoms,just pressure.I wondered if the two were connected and have been told by several people that it is a possibility.either way I will see my doctor tomm. and have her put me on antibiotics to see if it will get rid of this problem..hope this helps
Sometimes it not common but hardly it can be infected there's a 2/100 chances of it getting infected
It is more likely to be infected if the tooth wasn't properly packed.
A root canal is a procedure that can extend the useful life of a tooth that is infected and would otherwise be lost. If your quality of life or your appearance will not be adversely affected, then a root canal is not absolutely necessary, but the tooth should then be extracted to get rid of the infection. Living with the infection can lead to more serious complications.
To prevent any infection that may occur.
ROOT CANAL
If your tooth needs a root canal and is not painful, then it must be a dead tooth. When a tooth is dead, it is a source of infection which is not good. It is possible that it could hurt in the future due to infection. Better to have the root canal done, because you're trying to save your tooth. If you don't have the root canal treatment done and your tooth continues to decay, the dentist might have to pull that tooth out in the future. Once you pull out your tooth, that's gone forever
Yes! In fact, half of the time, its the root canal which clears away the infection as your dentist would usually file away the "bad" part of the tooth anyway.
Yes. If the nerve inside of a tooth dies, it is prone to infection (if not infected already). Root canal treatment should prevent or resolve this infection. A tooth may die for various reasons such as: decay, trauma, extensive wear/grinding/abrasion.
Seems that infection from the root canal of the teeth have passed to your maxillary sinus near your facial nerve branches. Better consult your physician.
the best predictor is why you needed a root canal in the first place. if its due to trauma, success is extremely high. if its due to infection, success rates are a little lower. the root anatomy of the tooth also factors into success rate.
Yes you can exercise after a root canal. It will have no interfierence.
Depends on how severe the infection is. If very severe they can precribe at 1g every 12h
Severe tooth infections have the potential to have systemic consequences that affect general health, even though they rarely induce dizziness, ringing in the ears, or head pressure. These are the main points: Systemic effects: Bacteria from severe dental infections, such as those resulting from untreated root canals, can travel through the bloodstream and impact many areas of the body. Tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, and headache pressure are examples of symptoms that can be brought on by the body's inflammatory reaction to an infection. Immune response: Infections have the potential to trigger the immune system, which in vulnerable people might result in systemic symptoms as headache pressure and dizziness. An infected root canal can occasionally cause severe tooth pain that radiates to the head and ears, which may explain symptoms like a pounding in the head and ringing in the ears.

A tooth can be mildly sore two months after root canal therapy, because of the stress that the tooth has undergone. If the pain is more severe, it would be good to check it with a dentist, because the crown might need more adjustments, or there might be still some infection remained from the root canal.
