Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. The root canal treatment was done today itself, and you are feeling the cap placed on the tooth is a little high. I would say its a very common feeling when we get some new object in our mouth that our body is not used to, it feels different. It is a very wise decision you have made to give it time of two days to adjust. Even after two days, if you feel the same height and are not able to chew like before or you get any kind of pain, visit your dentist and get the height reduced.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. Firstly I would like you to attach a picture of your teeth to understand the extent of the miss alignment. A full mouth X-ray or an OPG (orthopantomography) is also advisable to assess the amount of bone loss, and the alignment from the roots. It can also detect any hidden tooth inside the jaw. Orthodontic treatment can be possible, but as your age is 56 years, it solely depends on the strength of your jaws.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. You have a history of horizontally placed wisdom tooth in the right lower region and intense pain. I have seen the picture of the X-ray attached (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). I suggest the best option is extracting the tooth, as it is lying fully horizontally in the jaw. I can also identify some caries in the tooth, which is also causing you pain along with the pain the tooth is causing by pushing the next teeth.
