Thanks for using Health care magic.

Read your query.regarding the medicine u have not mentioned whether u are taking it as self medication or a dentist has prescribed it for u.

Burning sensation doesnt mean the killing the infection.I would rather suggest u get the tooth checked and treat the tooth infection and continue the medication.

Hope this will be helpful .

Thanks and regards.
