Okay so I ve been experiencing large amount of pain the last few days and.I thought it was due to my.wisdom teeth growing in but it seems to be my tooth next to my wisdom that.is.causing the pain I know the fact that this tooth has a very bad cavity.that exposes.the nerve isnt helping, I just want to know how can I fix.this I really want to get the tooth removed but I don t have dental insurance and or enough money to go get this down what should I do?
Hello there.... If your wisdom tooth is angulated (mesio-angular/horizontally impacted tooth) towards the second molar (the one adjacent to wisdom tooth), food gets impacted between these two teeth...the food impacted cannot be cleaned by you....this starts damaging your 2nd molar... If your wisdom tooth is normally positioned, the problem should be with your 2nd molar itself.get an intramural periapical radiograph to confirm if the decay is involving the pulp (vital part of tooth)...if the tooth is not damaged so much, get a root canal treatment done or get your second molar and wisdom tooth removed... Consult your doctor for further clinical evaluation and management.
