if the tooth is extremely sensitive to touch and temperature and hurts often then it is most likely in need of a root canal. in general anytime you feel a discomfort of pain in a tooth you need to see a dentist just to prevent root canals. but if you let it get that bad then you probably procrastinated long enough and waited to long and got yourself into some mess. so you'll need a root canal now. . it started as a small cavity that you could of gotten filled in a short quick appointment and saved $$ but if you waited then you'l spend alot of $$$ and take alot of time at the office.
