This article presents a case of an unusual localised sensation from a maxillary right second premolar experienced while undergoing root canal treatment. This sensation was felt during walking while the patient was suffering an episode of influenza. This sensation first occurred following debridement of the root canal. However, it persisted even after the root canal had been sealed. A hypothetical explanation of this manifestation is proposed. date: 2000-02 date_type: published publication: Singapore dental journal volume: 23 number: 1 pagerange: 37-39 refereed: TRUE citation: Ngeow, Dr. W.C.
