I've had 16 root canals. 99% success rate (one needed an apico). The last 3 however, whew! Electrical shocking pain while the root canaled teeth had temp fillings in them. I will take this one at a time so as to not confuse you!

Tooth 20 was very sensitive to cold. Canaled - no sensitivity. Great. One week later - it was receiving the electric shock feelings so we finished and filled - fine electrical went away. However, I was getting a throbbing (could feel my heartbeat) after I ate and also after a quick change of position (heart rate up - feel it in my teeth).

The throbbing after eating has subsided. However, I still feel a pounding heartbeat if i move quickly or if I bend over, etc. Any thoughts? 19 is apico and clean while 21 is clean (no cavities even...)

Thanks.
