Suggest Remedy For Pain In Bottom Front Teeth

My bottom front teeth have been aching at a 6 on a scale to 10.It first started on the lower right side and gradually over days started to move towards my bottom front teeth. Pressure seems to relieve the stress.I do have fairly unlucky teeth due to poor hygeiene as a child and horrible genetics. However I have had all these issues taken care of at the dentist and they said everything was fixed(this was nearly a month and a half ago). I floss once to twice a day and use crest pronamel mouth wash, I brush 2 to 3 times a day with sensodyne pro-enamel and a follow up at night with MI paste.Since I was at the dentist so recently I dont think itd be a cavity without there notice. Not to mention it doesnt hurt from hot or cold or sweets.I thought maybe it could be from my sinus issues about 2 weeks ago or possibly a second set of wisdom teeth coming in. I do already have all of mine and they arent impacted and fit fine.Im concerned that it s a big deal and the soonest my dentist can get me in is a month from now.Please let me know what you think I really appreciate it.-Amanda

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain in the lower front teeth can be because of the chronic localised periodontitis, that is nothing but the gum infection secondary to deposits or poor oral hygiene. Consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. If i am your treating doctor i would have put you on tablet doxycycline 100mg, twice daily on first day and once daily on next 4 days(if you are not allergic). Then I would have advised scaling and root planing of the teeth.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
