My front and back teeth were filled and now my whole left side hurts can you advice

Q. I had a tooth pulled in the back and the one in front and in back were filled. My dentist put in insulators when filling my teeth and I have had nothing but trouble with them since. I can’t auctually tell you which one hurts at times my whole left side hurts top and buttom,I’ll have a day where it seems good then it will just flare up.this has been going on for a month please help I was back to the dentist he gave me options of pulling them or root canals. but why did this start after the fillings they were filled within a week and a half of each other he said there was really nothing that he seen that should be causing me this problem.

A. Teeth that have decay present often have inflammed nerves inside.  By dentists removing decay, which they obviously have to do, the nerve can become more irritated.  They nerves can sometimes die and abscesses can form.  Asyour dentist suggests the treatment options are either removal or root canal treatment.
