42 years old with dental pain
Hi, I am 42 years old with dental pain. Part of my bottom back molar broke off and the dentist did a root canal 3 weeks ago. I never had any pain until after the root canal. I'm still taking Advil 3-4 times a day from the pain. It's not a constant pain. I try to eat on the other side of my mouth but sometimes if I chew on the root canalled tooth it's painful and if I put any pressure on the tooth it hurts. I went back to the dentist today and he said it takes up to 4 weeks for the pain to go away. Does that sound right?
