Re: Continued Pain after cracked tooth is capped....



Your description could be a cracked root or a dead pulp. The GP or the
endodontist should be able to tell you better. If you have room for the
wisdom teeth and are using them effectively, then I suspect it will be well
worth your while to restore the tooth.
