Have a crown on my tooth, bite not lined up. Adjustment done, feels a bit better not 100% may need root canal now, why?

Asked By:beaverton1 in Beaverton, OR

I have had some pain and sensitivity to hot and cold things. If a root canal is needed, could that be from an improperly fitted crown? Also, how many times can a crown be adjusted and should I be asking to have the crown re-done? Thank you so much!
