[|Human|] About two weeks before I had my wisdom teeth removed, I went in and had a large cavity filled. The dentist said it wasn t bad enough to do a root canal , but he wanted to cap the tooth since he had to drill away a lot of it and he didn t want me to lose the filling. All was fine, no pain in that tooth, not even sensitivity. Then, a week ago I had my wisdom teeth removed. I had no pain from that at all and almost no swelling. Dry socket has also not been an issue. However, the capped tooth is now causing me extreme pain to the point I m watching the clock so I know when I can take another pill to kill the pain before it even starts up again. I guess this tooth would be my first molar, and the one behind it (the one that would be next to my wisdom tooth) is also sore . Could this possibly just be due to fluid buildup or some other complication or is it possible that I need a root canal after all and it s just showing up now ? I am 19 and I have good teeth and a very high tolerance to pain, so the fact that this tooth is bothering me so much is a concern. Please help!
[|AI|]  Hi, you are giving a history of sharp, shooting, continuous pain, and also it is localized (as you said first molar), with a past dental history of large filling, these are the particular sign of necrotized tooth. You have to go for immediate root canal treatment of that tooth.  That is the only treatment. painkillers can only subside pain for a short while but the cause of pain will not subside without root canal. Thanks.
