ONe of my molars which was filled last year (a deep large filling- almost to bone) has started hurting me in the past month. So I went to the dentist yesterday. An x-ray showed that the roots are infected (or could they just be inflamed?). Also all my symptoms- pain, sensitivity, spongy tooth, headaches, sore jaw- point to an infection, at least according to dentist. The pain is ok though as long as I do not eat on that side. The gum around it is healthy. I am getting a root canel (I do not want an extraction as it is a front molar) on June 10th. In the meantime he prescribed antibiotics for me.
But do I really NEED to take them? Is there something else I can do instead?
BTW, I am EBF my month old ds.
