Hi im really in need of a Dentist, I have had this really bad tooth ache that feels as if someone is pulling my tooth and its a pain that is so hard to expalin that it leaves me kicking and screaming and crying and i dont know what to do. I cant seem to get an appointment till the middle of June and i cant wait that long.
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The severe pain you are describing is because of the tooth infection (acute apical periodontitis). Nothing to be panic, Consult an oral physician and get the tooth treated with root canal treatment or extraction of the tooth. Get a radiograph done to see the extent of the infection and suitability of the tooth for the treatment. If I am your treating doctor, I would have prescribed, a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500\u00a0mg and metronidazole 400\u00a0mg TID for 5 days (if you are not allergic). Along with antibiotics, you can an analgesics like diclofenac 50\u00a0mg BID for 5 days. But these medicines will provide a temporary relief. Once you complete the course, try to get the tooth treated as early as possible. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
