hard to explain?


Question:

Answers:
Sounds like you might be developing a tooth abscess. Its an infection along the gum line in your jaw. Usually not related to recent fillings, but there could always be a chance. I'm not sure what the scope of practice is with a dentist and them prescribing antibiotics, but I would definitly get it checked out. It can get pretty painful and develop into something worse if left untreated. Call your dentist. You should be able to get a same day appointment, especially when this occurred right after having fillings placed. If he cannot prescribe antibiotics, then see your primary care physician and have him or her check you out.

you need to call your dentist. There's something going on with that tooth
ask your dentist. maybe this reaction is just temporary.
Your tooth has absessed, call your dentist it might be infected.
I had the same thing happen
Call or go back to your dentist's office. Something isn't right! Hope this helps............JG
See the dentist immediately.....it could be alergies or the filling is damaging the gum......seek fast medical attention ...you dont want to lose your tooth or get gum disease.
Use hot water and salt to wash your mouth three times daily.
Your tooth has probably abcessed. Get to the dentist ASAP and if they do nothing, get a new dentist.
