I had implant work a week ago i am now having a lot of pain now could it be an upset nerve

Saturday, June 6th, 2009
Q.
I had implant work (complete implant with temporary) a week ago because of a fractured tooth root and an abcess, was taking 500mg of Amoxicillin for 3 days prior to surgery (just finishing the course today), 2 days after surgery I started to have soft tissue swelling around my mouth not just at the operation site, which is now being treated with 1 week of Metrondiazole. I am having a lot of pain now with the tooth next to my implant, is it possible that the original infection has spread across, or could it just be an upset nerve, as it has felt a little strange and tingly since the surgery? Will the antibiotics i’m on kill any remaining infection or should I go back again before my post op check in 4 days time. I don’t want to be a nuisance to the dentist, but I just worry I shouldn’t need so many pain killers a week after surgery.

A.
This is uncommon a week after … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

My partner has a tooth ache and his whole face is swelled up what can the dentist do?

Monday, June 1st, 2009
Q.
Hi, My partner had crowns fitted to his teeth. Two years ago one came loose and he had to have it refitted. He has never had any problems at all, until now. He is really over the top with his cleaning and looks after his teeth very well (better than me. On Sunday he devekoped a tooth ache. On tuesday he went to his dentist who took an e-ray but he said he couldn’t find where the problem was. He gave him some Amoxicillin and said to take nurofen. He was in a lot of pain so I took him to the doctors on Wednesday she prescribed a painkiller. On Thursday we went back to the dentist as his whole face swelled up. The dentist gave him Metronidazole. Today Sunday he is still in absolute agaony, the swelling is still there and he cann’t open his eye. The painkillers don’t do anything and it has not improved he has a very high temperature. I am going to take him to the doctors again. The Dentist has said to come back in two weeks…… why is he taking so long to treat it? and what can he do? thanks so much
