Recently had LANAP surgery for my bottom teeth. One week later, tooth #30 has extreme cold sensitivity, where anything cold is a sharp pain.
They did X-rays and found a cavity so I had it filled but it had no effect. Perio examined my gums closely, dentist did follow-up X-rays but they can't find anything. Perio said it could be a micro fracture, but basically the next step would be to get a root canal.
Has anyone seen something like this before? It's been 6 weeks since my surgery and it doesn't feel like the sensitivity is improving.
