Is it normal for your teeth to be sensitive after a root canal?

I had a root canal yesterday. My teeth are very sensitive after that. Is it normal?

Yes for a few days and then it should subside due to the tooth manipulation and being worked on . Hope your tooth feels better soon!
It takes time to heal after root canal treatment ..it’s normal for tenderness to chewing and because there is no nerve it should not be sensitive to temperature
Yes, it is normal for your tooth to be a little tender for anywhere from 1-4 weeks after a root canal.
