First question is : what kind of pain was it?
these are the options:
1.pain is getting stronger on something cold(cold water)
diagnose is pulpitis acuta
therapy is very simple.open the tooth and put toxavit and close the tooth.
result:pain stops in few hours,medicine stays in tooth for 14 days and then
therapy goes on...
2.pain is getting stronger on hot (hot coffee for egzample)
diagnose is pulpitis purulenta (you have a pus in a tooth)
3.pain is getting stronger when you bite something
diagnose is periodontitis periapicalis acuta
therapy for 2. and 3. is opening the tooth,penicilin ,and after that pain
finishes for few hours also
So as you see pain MUST stop after your visit at dentist
and this what happend to you isnt normall!
The tooth feels best right when I

this is true,but if he made a right procedure it would be less swollen
sooner.Pus can go out through the root canal if it had been properly
instrumented

----This I dont understand : what second half of root canal!?!When you do
endodontic treatment you do all canals that egzists in that tooth!

!!!!!This is the right issue.!!!!
This is called a FAUSE ROUTE !!!!!!!
And this is the bigest mistake that dentist can make in endodontics.Chance
that this is a fracture is 1%.Fracture is when something is broken because
of some force (like you say my arm is fractured by itself)
If your tooth was not too much destroyed by caries than this was your
dentists big mistake.and now hi wiil rob you for
3600$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you know what can you do in Croatia whith this money?
I have patients whith what we call a graveyard in their mouth and I make
them like a movie star whith this money.You can come to Croatia,make a
BRIDGE (not implant,it is too expensive,but if you want it,it costs 800?)
3-parts ,(1 porcelan crown costs 200$) have a nice hollydays and go back and
you will have still money to live 1 month with it....
Sorry but I think that same will happen with the other tooth and you will
have to pay 7200$
Me,who knows dentistry, feel many times sorry for people.I feel sorry for
them because many times they pay too high price of their lack of knowledge
about the teeth.
There are many dentists that dont care for people,just for money!
