Jaw And Tooth Pain, Headache, Gum Infection, Took Cap. What To Do?

all of sudden I picked up left lower & upper jaw and tooth pain . The pain stated going towards ear and also started feeling headache. I visited a dentist in banaglore and he said gum infection and gave a antibiotic tablet and pain killer for 3 days and dolo ct gel for 6 days with salt water rinse for three times a day for 6 days. For dasara holdays I have visited my native town during the medication . I started feeling same pain even after medication is over. since I am in other town I visited another dentist , he did scaling for me . even after one week I dont see any difference. The new doctor claims I have deep gum infection .but he is still treating with same antibiotic and pain killer. After three days I am going back to banaglore . I am curios to know whether I can apply some gel so that my problem wont aggravate..

Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

I would suggest you to get a thorough clinical evaluation by a dentist.

Jaw as well as toothache may be due to-bone loss or periodontal pocket.

I would advice you to get regeneration therapy or flap treatment to be done.

Meanwhile,maintain oral hygiene well.

Plenty of fruits as well as vitamin c supplements has to be administered.

Hope this helps.
