hi all, after having my tooth out few weeks back. it had become infected, the antibiotics had not got rid of the swelling, so i went back yesterday. the dentist took x-ray and said that there was and infected root far down, he said that he would not go that deep as it is near a nerve in the jaw that it is close to, and if that nerve got damaged, then i caould end up with a face like a stroke victims, one side droping down. he said if the next antibiotics dont heal it, then i would have to go to the hospital and have it done there. im really nervious about the nerve being damaged and having the operation. has anyone else has similar problems? im starting to feel myself brakeing down again, and i had been ok for a month or two. please help.
thanks.
