hello
pain in tooth is occuring because of puLp infection and yes root canal treatment is a good and wise treatment to cure it... but please get an x ray done for the tooth before going for RCT...
SUBOXONE IS AN ANTI OPIOID AND IT IS USED FOR TREATING OPIOD DEPENDENCE...IT HAS A LOT OF DRUG REACTIONS ALSO ... I THINK IT IS ADVISABLE TO CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE QUITING THE DRUG AND TAKING SOME OTHER DRUG...
PERCOCET CONTAINS ACETAMINOPHEN WHICH IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO RELIEVE SEVERE PAIN.. TO STOP SEVERE DENTAL PAIN KETOROLAC 400MG IS A GOOD OPTION BUT PLEASE DO CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE TAKING ANY MEDICINE AND GO FOR RCT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE IN CASE OF TOOTH ACHE MEDICATION IS ONLY A TEMPORARY TREATMENT..
FOLLOW UP IS INVITED .
