Q. im getting porcelain veneers and my dentist has prepared my upper teeth(shaved back)ready for my implants and he has put a temporary in until the veneers arrive, but ive been in absolute pain for 2mths, voltarin takes the pain away, but why am i experiencing this pain its in my ears eyes and under my jaw? should i not be getting this done,but my dentist doesnt want to loose a 30 grand job!?and how long can you have a temporary in for? my upper temporary have been in for 2 mths, and my lower temp has been in for 6wks but my lower teeth have’nt been shaved back yet. Am really worried. any advice would be really great thankyou very much!!!!

A. It is difficult to advise you without seeing you.  Sometimes teeth can be sensitive after they are prepared.  It sounds like the pain may either be due to the underlying teeth being exposed or your bite may be incorrect. i would recommend you talk to your dentist and ask for some advice, i would like you to be pain free before the final restorations are placed.
I hope this helps
