I have some tylenol too, but those on work for two hours!. Can someone please give me some advice on what to do because the pain has been here for five days now!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You need to contact your dentist to have this evaluated; there could be an auxiliary canal that was missed or you may be hitting the temp to hard!.

You may think the antibiotics aren't working, but they actually are when taken according to directed!. It takes two days for them to get into the blood stream and really start to work; when you miss a dose or skip them, all you do is allow the bacteria and infection to build up again causing that pain to continue!. Do as your dentist recommended, take the antibiotics, take an Ibuprofen at a 600mg dose which you can buy over the counter taking 3 tabs of 200mg's!.

If the tooth hasn't been taken out of occlusion yet, you may have such swelling from the infection that the tooth is taller than the others causing you to hit the tooth too hard when you bite together; this will require a simple adjustment to correct!. If you can bite your teeth together and feel this one tooth "touch first" then this is the case!. Try not to rest your teeth together or bite unnecessarily!.

Contact your dentist today and start taking the antibiotics (if you have stopped) as directed, along with an Ibuprofen such as Advil or Motrin at a 600 mg dose!. Tylenol won't really work well in dental problems since it doesn't work to reduce the inflammation as an Ibuprofen does!. See your dentist as soon as possible to have this evaluated or adjusted!.

IF there are no nerve!.!.!. n the root canal complete!.!.!.!.I think its anther tooth or your temporary filling is high!.!. you might need a simple adjustment!.!.!.!. A constant dull ache or throbbing pain tell me its anther tooth!.!.BUT if it hurts when you bite or when chewing then that tell me its still high!! walking in and tell them wgats wrong you shouldn't be in pain for five days!! after the root canal you should be very sore with some pain!.!. but not that muchWww@Answer-Health@Com

do you mean roots are filled already ot just cleaned!? if filled in one visit, its common to have some pain for a week, use worm salty water as a rinse, or if it lasts or dosnt decrease,check ur dentist for removing the filling and refillWww@Answer-Health@Com
