Q.
Hello, I had my impacted wisdom tooth extracted 4 weeks ago and my molar tooth has been badly damage. The filling on the neighbouring tooth crumble according to the surgeons. I have been to my dentist to have another filling put in last week but have started having throbbing pain which resulted into an unbearable pain which i needed to go back my dentist in an emergency. The dentist i saw advised me to to have the tooth taken. I declined as the upper tooth directly rest on the damage tooth. The dentist suggested a denture, bridge or a crown. I liked the idea of a bridge or a crown but the dentist said putting a crown in might not be successful as having a root canal procdure can be difficult as the damage tooth is right at the back of my mouth and also the NHS wont cover a bridge since it’s not a tooth missing in the front. The dentist have been working on the root canal procedure and havent been successful with a and reckons she night have gone beyond the root and damage the tooth. Please i am in a dilemma and i need a second opinion what to do as i need a tooth to support the upper tooth otherwise it will down on my gum. Shall i see another dentist or carring seeing my dentist as i have been appointed again on the 26th August ’10? Many thanks,
