Help....toothache And Dentist!!!!

[kazzie]

Hi

Had this weird thing going on!!!!

Kept getting really bad gum rather than tooth pain in upper right jaw!

Anadins normally see it off but today.....AGONY!!!!!

Saw dentist in Jan and teeth were ok!!!

Today I have been in agony

Pain seems to be coming from one tooth which is ok but has a big filling in it!!!

The whole of my right hand upper jaw hurts!!!

Any idea what it could be???

Going to dentist at 4.30pm tomm so dreading it being pulled out!!!

Anyone had a tooth out lately and how was it??

This is a back tooth but not a wisdom one!!!

Im ok now cos have taken prescription painkillers and loads of vodka lol....shouldent I know but had to do something lol

Any help or advice welcome

Thanks Guys

Might be an absess so they would give you anti b's first and then probably refill it.

I've had 2 back teeth out and it took a few seconds, that was it. No pain, no bleeding to speak of, nothing. I'd much rather have one extracted than have a filling any day.

Good luck!

Hi Usually if its an abcess it sounds different when you tap on it, could also be an infection, I had all my top teeth out last year after suffering for many years with abcesses, infections, bridge work etc.
I had a phobia about dentist a bigger one about teeth and an even bigger one about false teeth, Im still alive.
Not long to go, always someone on call at hospital though if its gets too bad.
take care and go easy on what you take.xxxx

Hi Kazzie

Sorry to hear about your tooth hun, im terrible when it comes to dentists i need a tooth pulling out myself but havent plucked up the courage to have it removed. If you are braver than me and need it taken out you could always ask your GP if he could prescribe a diazipam for you, thats what i did but its still in the cupboard in the box....lol..vodka sounds a good idea though . Hope you get it sorted soon, there is nothing worse than tooth ache

Love

Andrea

Kazzie, you have my sympathy...I broke a tooth a fortnight ago (kind of right hand side molar) then cracked the remaining tooth by clenching in my sleep...this then broke along with some of the filling and I was dreading what the dentist would say (am terrified of dentist). But he said they tend not to pull teeth out if they can help it...I thought I would need root treatment (gulp) but he has tried a filling instead....that was two weeks ago and like you the whole of the right side of my jaw aches and Im having to take regular ibuprofen...dentist says I need to leave it sto see if tooth 'settles' if not Ill need root treatment and a crown (double gulp)....I now wish he had done that in first place to get it over with.

Yours sounds like it may be an abscess kazzie...they are very painful....makes th treatment seem more of a relief than anything else....I had a back tooth extracted because of an abscess a few years ago and it was honestly ok (much easier than suffering the pain of the abscess anyway). Good luck Kazzie...let us know how you get on and sorry for hijacking your thread.

My dad had two teeth out today kazz,all he felt was some pulling no pain.He hasnt had any pain since it woke up either.It has bled a little as he is on asprin.Im sure they wont take it out,probably need antibiotics.It may be neuralgia.
