Hi , One of my tooth had a root canal treatment done week-two ago , however my personal dentist could not finish the whole treatment (cleaning the nerve etc) as when he was trying to touch it it was too painful for me so he ended up putting a temporary filling with some medicine . Today during my lunch I felt like the nerve has eaten half of the medicine my dentist has put in that tooth , living me with a quiet a weird feeling & when Im biting carefully it feels/reacts weaker than other ones..is that normal?should I be really worried? or just wait until the next appointment which is on at next Wednesday?  and Ill ask him to finish it off or do something with it then?Please help me , as this tooth and the pain I went through made me realize that all of my tooths are really important!
Hello, Thanks for writing in. The pain is due to the infected pulp remaining within the pulp canal. I would suggest you to take antibiotics-analgesics prescribed by your dentist. If pain is unbearable, please do visit your dentist and get the infected pulp removed completely.Meanwhile, maintain good oral hygiene. The pain will end once the treatment has completed successfully. Rinse mouth after every meal. Take care.
