Ouch!


I have this terrible tooth ache. It's been bugging me since long time now.
Actually the tooth problem is quite complicated. It was a tooth that was just starting to get a cavity, but didn't. The dentist drilled it a little bit, then filled it with an expensive acrylic cement. Now that same tooth is tingling. From the inside, though it looks perfectly fine on the outside. I just visited the dentist last month & she said all my teeth are fine! But I can't ignore the tingling. What do I do? My friends are advising me to go to a different dentist & my current one just thinks I'm unusually paranoid about cavities. But i can't ignore the tingling.
So I'm asking mom to call the dentist today, & I'll hopefully get an appointment for later this week. So you can probably see why I'm not in a mood to blog. Just worried sick about my tooth!

love,

  2. Tooth pain can be a real worry. Don't ignore it and don't let the cray dentist cause you anymore pain.
    I am with what your friends have suggested. See another dentist ASAP.

    From your description it appears your tooth is real sick with infection irritating it's nerve supply. It's a danger sign buddy. You need to have this sorted before the pain escalates.

    Don't panic, just see a new dentist soon.

    Take care & get well soon :)

    Cheers!!

  5. @Matt- True! I'll do it soon.

    @Chatterbox- I think I might have jumped to conclusions. The tooth tingling has become a lot less. The tooth is filled, so I'm still not sure what happened. Just my nerves going on the fritz? But I'll definitely see a dentists to confirm.

    @Psycha Babbler- yes they do! Thank You.

    @Rohit- I really don't think brushing one's teeth after every meals makes a big difference. Twice a day is enough, in my opinion. My friend suggested cloves too, but how will it make a difference? A tooth that is perfectly fine on the outside (I mean perfectly!) is tingling at the nerves. Anyway, thanks for your suggestions :)
