Hello,
WC to Health Care Magic
It is difficult to diagnose from the description you have given. If you can give the following information, it will be easy to arrive at a diagnosis and advice you whether or not the treatment will work
30th means last but one molar?
Is that tooth decayed? if yes, how long and how much damage?
Is the pain sharp-shooting or dull-vague
Is the pain continuous or intermittent
Does the pain get triggered from factors like eating food, esp cold, sour/spicy food etc. Or starts without any trigger factors
Does the pain get relieved on medications or other treatment
Does the pain throbs when lying down with face on the affected side. Does it interferes with sleep?
Is there any swelling on the gums or outside the mouth (cheek area of affected teeth)
Any discharge of pus or fluid inside the mouth
Please note there are many reasons for dental pain and diagnosis is a key to decide the treatment
thanks

Hello,
Thanks for writing in.
I read your problem,first of all i would like to tell you pain in your tooth is because of deep infection in your tooth.
Medicines prescribed by your dentist is good,it is effective.
I will suggest you visit your dentist again and ask for an x-ray of the same tooth,if root canal treatment can be done the your tooth will be saved,if the condition of your tooth is worst and can not be saved,go for removal of the same tooth for permanent solution.
Nothing to get worried.
Take care.

Hello,
The pain might be there due to gum infection in that area. Plaque and calculus tends to deposit back teeth so the sensitivity and pain might be there due to gum infection. For this, you have to maintain a good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly. You can do warm saline rinses 3-4 times a day to reduce the gum swelling if present in that area. Without clinical examination, it is difficult to comment that what is causing you pain. You can discuss your problem with your dentist.
