What Causes Constant Headaches Post Placement Of A Dental Post?
i just had a dental post put in upper left mouth. the dentist had to back it out and put in a small post? because he believes the original was compressing the bone (I was in constant pain). Now since he put the smaller one in or backed it out, whatever, I have had a constant headache (almost migraine like) on the same side has the post. Yes, the mouth pain is much less but now this headache won t go away no matter what I take for it. I even resorted to taking an NSAID which I am allergic but was desperate. How do I get relief? Do I have him remove the post and write off the $700.00 I just paid for the stupid thing? I don t know what to do but it hurts and I still have to work while it HURTS. Help?
