I’m in a lot of pain but I can’t have my tooth extracted till June, what can I do?

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010
Q.
My dentist has referred me to the hospital for an extraction due to decay. However, he recently worked on a tooth next to one due for extraction. This work has put the decayed tooth into orbit! I have been in extreme pain and the dentist has prescribed penicillin. My hospital appointment is not until June! He isn’t keen on extracting the tooth unless I have it done privately so that he has enough time. What can I do? I am in pain. Thank you,

Should I get a second opinion?

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010
Q.
Following an abscess (and antibiotics) I had a root canal filling in October last year. My dentist told me that he hadn’t been able to fill all of it due to the location of the tooth. Recently a piece of this tooth broke off and I have more pain which he said wasn’t caused by the tooth breaking off. I am on another course of antibiotics and he says that it’s probably not worth trying to fill the tooth again and only option may be extraction which will cost between £400/£500! I have a morbid fear of dentists and cannot tolerate an xray being taken. I am due to return next week but I am dreading what he will say, should I get a second opinion?,

I’m concerned that more dental work will make my sore nerve even worse, what do you suggest?

Monday, May 10th, 2010
Q.
Lat Dec, I had 2 deep fillings in lower back teeth. since then one tooth hasn’t settled, still nervy, and have tingling along face lower lip and chin that side. Dentist says teeth are fine and don’t need anymore work done. Last injection given hit nerve and sent electric shock down my face. I have app to take tooth out this week, to see if it eleviates nerve pain and tingling, but concerned tnat more work to teeth may make nerve worse. Under doctor, nearologist but no one can give me an answer. Should I have tooth taken out? Have been offered root canal although not needed but can’t bear thought of more driling on nerve. Please advise. It ‘s been nearly 6 months of this now. Thank you,

Will the root need to be removed regardless of the treatment I decide to have?

Monday, May 10th, 2010
Q.
I had an upper front tooth crown on a post which became loose so my dentist lengthened it. It became loose and on removing it the root fractured. He is now going to remove the root and put a denture in its place . This seemed a good option so my gum can heal to enable implant at later date, if I dont like the denture. [decided against the bridge as too evasive. My question is why does the root need removing. We dont remove them when we have a tooth extracted, and does the root need removing whichever treatment I decide.,

Should I have my tooth removed? Or should I wait till the filling settles down?

Thursday, May 6th, 2010
Q.
Hello I need some advise. I had 2 deep fillings done on back teeth RH bottom side of mouth last Dec. Since then I have nerve pain from one tooth and tingling in lower lip chin and face on that side. Been back to dentist who says nothing wrong with teeth. Went back again, he said he could drill out again or do root canal, although not needed ,or take tooth out. I opted for tooth extraction because I couldn’t stand anymore drilling on nerve. The 2nd injection he gave me when doing the 2nd filling hit the nerve and I had electric shock feeling through face. Is is possible that nerve pain and tingling is due to temporary nerve damage? I still haven’t had tooth out because worried about anymore trauma to nerve. I am off to America in 2 weeks for holiday but don’t want to go away not being able to eat/drink properly. Pain/sensations are there all day but go away at night. Should I opt for tooth out or give it more time to see if it all settles down,?Dentist is hesitant to remove tooth now – too close to holiday. Please help. Have lost a lot of weight due to anxiety. Thanks,
A.

I don’t want my tooth extracted but I’ve been told by my dentist that root canal treatment would fail, any advice?

Thursday, May 6th, 2010
Q.
I have been advised by my dentist that a back tooth needs to be removed (at the moment I have an abcess) but he is not recommending root canal treatment as he does not feel that it will be successful but is happy to refer me to a specialist in that field. I would obviously prefer to keep my tooth but he feels that the root canal treatment would not last and would need to be repeated with the eventual result of the tooth having to be removed. Any advise/recommendations would be much appreciated.,
