Hi -

There is a filling in the tooth next to the extraction site, and I think in the one next to that as well. They are not root-canaled or crowned teeth, just fillings. The sensitivity when biting or pushing is affecting all the teeth up to my front teeth (so 6).

I still can't quite believe my lack of luck - that removing the tooth which caused pain to bite on every single time, has led to biting pain in all the other teeth on that side.

Thanks-

A neurologist would want to know an extensive history about your dental and medical issues... any traumas to your head, face, neck... and in detail the type of pain you are experiencing. He may conduct some neurological tests which vary according to the area being tested.

The tooth that seems to be hurting when you bite against it..... is this a root canaled tooth? Does it have a large filling in it or a crown on it?
