Symptoms Of Root Canal Disease
 

"What are the most common symptoms of endodontic (root canal) disease?"
 

Endodontic disease can manifest itself with a wide variety and combination of symptoms. Common symptoms of endodontic disease include:
 
Lingering sensitivity to cold liquids
Lingering sensitivity to hot liquids
Sensitivity to sweets
Pain to biting pressure
Pain that is referred from a tooth to another area, such as the neck, temple, or the ear
Spontaneous toothache, such as that experienced while reading a magazine, watching television, etc.
Constant or intermittent pain
Severe pain
Throbbing pain
Pain that may occur in response to atmospheric pressure changes, such as when flying or scuba diving
Pain that may occur in response to postural changes, such as when going from a standing to a reclining position
Swelling

If you have any of these symptoms, it would be wise to visit us at TenderCare Dental Center because you might have root canal disease or another dental problem.  Some of these symptoms may also be attributable to decay, defective fillings, periodontal diseases, cracked teeth, or other tooth or bite-related problems.  On other occasions, the symptoms may even be caused by disorders that are not related to the teeth.

For more information about how we at TenderCare Dental Center can help you with your root canal problems, call us at 503 629-8005, we will be happy to talk with you.
