Question:
My dentist drilled out a cavity about 6 months ago and he tried to fix it after he screwed it up.?
It still hurts and i cant chew on that side. What do I do?
Answers:
if it still hurts on that side, than i am soo sorry, it sounds like you need a root canal.go back to your dentist and ask him to take an x ray and get you out of pain..nobody should have to deal with that pain!! also ask him if the cavity was deep...when he filled it, or the cavity was close to the nerve, he might have failed to tell you that that filling might not last and you would eventually need a root canal...that is what my dentist says when he's working on a patient and he see's that the filling wont last too long and the patient might need a root canal so the patient doesnt think he screwed up:) but otherwise go see your dentist for an emergency appointment and tell the reception you need to book an emergency appointment cause your in alot of pain...than ask your dentist about that, feel better:)
