hi im having a one hell of a paintrain on my front teeth
at first it was a sharp piercing pain when i drain soup this morning
now it's a dull ache and sometime pulsating when i walk up and down the stairs

now that front teeth is sensitive and theres a dull pain sensation if i were to tap it lightly

the particular teeth, the back has chipped and is filled with normal fillings
that was during last christmas,
now its march, im wondering if its further decay and wonder
if i should get a new fillings?
or should i get a root canal done and have a veneer? (the cracked/chipped part is at the back of the front teeth)
or should i get a crown done (but most of my teeth structures are still around aside a small part at the back

is there a way to save the teeth without pulling it out?
how do i treat the pain sensation at the moment

Hello, do you have any nocturnal pain? It is highly unlikely there's further decay this early since you claim the filling was done 3 months ago(unless there was caries left behind and the filling was done)

Just based on your statement most likely looks like a microleakage/broken restoration.

Without further X-ray or clinical examination I can't give you further answers.

If its a case of microleakage/broken restoration a simple filling again would suffice.

Hope that helps smile.gif

Thank you for your response

Yes I have nocturnal pain
And woke up with a sore gum allover
As if my entire left side of my face teeth wants to fall off
I'll be walking in a clinic now
And hope I don't need a root canal and a simple fix up on that tooth of mine
Hopefully nothing major

I just came out from the dental office
The doc told I have 2 choices
Take it out or root canal
She's charging me 700 for the root canal

It was an old temporary filling from all the way back Jun last year which I'm supposed to have it replaced

She had given antibiotics and painkillers
I'll be going back on Monday to do the root canal
As she can't do anything atm since my teeth are too sensitive to work on
It had effected the inside of the teeth
If she were to administer and then put a filling over it
It will reinfect again she said since the remnants won't have place to go

Which means the decay have gone into the pulp of the teeth where it caused an infection which lead to your symptoms.

A root canal will solve your problemĀ  smile.gif

Would a root canal cause my tooth to look dead?
Would crown be advised?
I may consider to get one latrr since most of my teeth structure are still in tact
My brother in law had his root canal done in the US and it costed him 800 USD
