Talk to Dentist on Tooth Infection

person-avatar

Asking For Self, Female, 28 Years old, Islamabad

I was having tooth ache due to tooth infection and on the same day my dentist done my root canal without offering any prior antibiotic treatment.Since that day (about 4 days ago) i am having severe infection and pain.I am 22 weeks pregnant having Velocef 500mg 3 times a day with Panadol but there is no improvement. Since yesterday i was having severe swelling along with pain. My pain only fades for about 2-3 hours after my antibiotic dose. Is it normal?

It's protocol Ur dentist followed. Antibiotics more effective if rct is done first. U must be pain free during pregnancy. U can consult Ur dentist again and he may change pain killer to keep u pain free. Antibiotics have no role in pain.

it's not necessary to give antibiotic before starting root canal. visit your dentist again and discuss this issue . during pregnancy toothache takes time to go away . and start rinsing with a pinch of salt in lukewarm water 3 times a day it will give u some relief from swelling and pain and visit ur dentist again he/she will do something to relief ur pain. and consult your gynae before taking velosafe

w salam..beta pregnacy mai sirf medicines sy manage karty hain..treatment nahi karwaty because jo local anesthesia dant ko soun kar ny k liye lagaya jata hy woh baby k liyee theek nahi hota..infectio ki sorat mai phtlay antibiotices di jati hy aur woh antibioties jo pregneny mai safe hoti han..agar ap medicines pouchna chahati han tu mai marhum py online concultant hon ap mujsy pouch sakhti han..apna khiyal rakhain..

Some medications are placed in the teeth after proper irrigation and removal of infected soft tissue inside the tooth (pulp). Kindly visit your dentist, it will relief your pain and there will be more likely no need of antibiotic after that

Dentist in Lahore - Dr. Sohail Saeed

This neglect is quite common in married ladies in our country , we are pain oriented people. Go to good experienced dentist and take any medicine after consulting ur gynaecologist. If during pregnancy u need any dental x-ray go to x-ray facility where they put lead apron on patient before doing an x-ray .

yes, it happens when there's infection left in treated tooth, but any procedure requiring anesthesia can't be performed during pregnancy, take pregnancy safe antibiotics and gargle with saline water, if still nothing happens visit your dentist in second trimester after permission from your gynecologist.

Visit Back Your Dentist and ask Him to Remove the Temporary or Permanent Filling on the tooth that was treatment by Root Canal Treatment, and Clean the Canals again and place Intracanal Medicament Calcium Hydroxide in the affected canals for 7 days atleast.. And Take The Above Antibiotics for 5 Days With addition of Danzan DS.
