<bot>: Hello Christina, Greetings from India, As I understand you got a root canal done several years ago and the tooth fractured a year ago, and now you are having some indifferent sensation on the right side of face. Well whether this is related to your tooth is very difficult to say without a proper examination. You have not mentioned whether this tooth is present on the right side or not? So can not correlate. But numbness isn't a good sign, and it requires immediate attention, so you are advised to immediately see a dentist. Take Care
