Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In Tooth Post Filling

Due to a filling came out and I bit in to it and it broke my jaw tooth. The dentist I went to filled and pulled those teeth at the same time. I am in agonizing pain. The one he pulled got a dry socket and that is awful, but the one he filled is so horrible. They have my top teeth over lapping one another. I cant eat or anything because the filled tooth is so packed and painful, please if you have any advise, I would greatly appreciate it.. Thank you and God bless

Hi..
Welcome to HCM..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain if there is such a severe pain after filling of tooth then there is a possibility that the nerves present in the centre of the tooth are exposed due to deeper cleaning of the decay and as the filling must be placed inside the tooth then there is a possibility that the filling is placed directly over the nerves leading to nerve irritation and inflammation causing severe pain..

Consult a Dentist and get an x ray done and the dentist will remove the filling under local anaesthesia and do a root canal treatment to relieve pain..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
