I had a root canal and a crown placed immediately after, two months ago. The dentist has reshaped multiple times the crown to rule out possible biting issues. Though this has not fixed the discomfort pain at all, my tooth (no. 15) is still in-pain. I feel pain/discomfort when I bite or apply pressure to it.
