Will The Pain From My Cracked Tooth Become Unbearable?

Q.
Hello,

I had some work done on my right front tooth 2-3 years ago.

After that work I noticed a slight pain in that tooth.

The last week that pain has gotten worse.

I’m worried cause today is the Queens birthday long weekend and my dentist is closed.

Is this pain going to get unbearable?

I did notice that I have a cracked bottom right tooth which when I bite hard hits my right tooth.

I go to the gym and when I work out I tend to bite hard. So I don’t know whether it is something I am doing, grinding or pressuring the tooth too much or whatever. Tooth pain is horrendous though and I’d like to avoid it as much as I possibly can!

Hi

It could be a root fracture or an infection.

Avoid biting down hard and have a soft diet and book in win your dentist. There is no guarantee that the pain is going to get any better or worse until you see your dentist and they diagnose the problem exactly. So as I said, for now just take it easy with the biting and food until you can see them.
