Default at a loss

Thanks for reading this. I have had plenty of issues with my teeth; crowns and braces and one implant bridge for molars.
About ten years ago, I SWEAR my front tooth (crowned) moved forward and I pushed it back. I then had braces and had the crowns replaced two years ago. One front tooth has always felt "twingy" and I kept asking the dentist if the root was fractured. He kept saying no; he saw nothing. Last April, the pain was HORRIBLE and i had an emergency root canal. The endontist said that the tooth had a little side canal and treatment was "questionable." When he got into the tooth, though, he said that the nerve/tissue was dead and he was confident that my problems were ending.
I had pain again after (not terribly severe) and went back to him and my regular dentist. I said that I must be crazy but I really felt the root was somehow fractured. They both said that the xray showed it was healing and that it wouldn't heal if the root was fractured. Is this true? It still twinges in pain. My regular dentist says the canal is just overfilled. HELP???? Any advice? Also, my four front teeth are crwons so I am thinking I would opt for an implant bridge. Any experience with those?
Thanks for reading.
