Narayana S · Answer

Placing GP short of Apex is no solution at all.

If anatomical apex is gauged correctly it's just excellent.  
Use apex locator if confusing.

Trigeminal neuropathy or neuralgia on left side has nothing to do with 45 46.

Mostly some missed accessory canals or referred pain due to 
-Rt TMJ if any
-Spondylosis C2 C3 
-Also rule out Ear ...ENT.
-Rule out Any high points

All probabilities already meticulously discussed. What's the health of the upper right posteriors? Sir, even if we suspect bilateral trigeminal neuralgia (extremely rare)... but the patient already on Carbamazepine.  How is the general health of the patient?

Amardeep Singh · Answer

45 is short and one of mesial root in 46 is also short of gp.....dead space is an invitation to the problems ..... remove crowns and check which teeth is top +ve ??Make separate crowns ....44 also needs crown ......check high points and periodontal pockets ...there is a bit of bone loss .....that can also result in to food impaction and pain ......do localised curettage..... prescribe metronidazole 400mg 1 TDs for 3 days ......

There is lost of thing can happen..High points
Irrigation was not proper..Agitation bmp was not proper..Perforation..Etc. advice pat for CBCT...Remove gp and place calcium hydroxide for 2weeks..Recall

Akshay Ladhania · Answer

Along with fair amount of root resorption distal to 46 it's probably periodontal component crying foul.
Secondly & importantly get a CBCT done as u may have missed a canal bcoz u hvnt mentioned anything wat u got in 45/46 no of canals ? 
Lastly TN affected left side won't have any effect on lower right quadrant as it doesn't cross the midline unless bilateral pathology .Severe bone loss evident along distal periodontal pocket to 46 although Iopa's are not that clear. 
Do the exploration & post feedback of CBCT results. 
Do attach clearer intraoral pic if any.

Prasanth Sasidharan · Answer

Check high points.
Check for any crak / fracture...
Check adjacent tooth..

Jagannath Pandit · Answer

1. Patient is having trigeminal neuralgia on left so he is using right side more for mastication.
2. The patient must be checking for tenderness at home with some objects like a heavy pen or keys etc. 
So tell the patient to use his left side and advice him not to check tenderness by himself. 
Hope it will help
