Hi Bryanna,

Well, as you know the past few months have been tough for me. I think my anxiety issues and some personal issues certainly have not helped. Anyway, tomorrow I am FINALLY getting that tooth filled in front of the wisdom tooth extraction site. It is time. If you forgot who I am, I am the one who had their upper left wisdom tooth out by reg dentist and seemed to have trouble with healing. u recWell, the healing is going well now. There is still an indention, a good size one, but it is filling in. I am wondering since the tooth was "off to the side" if that is why it "seems" to be more indented. Anyway, I am still having discomfort in that area sometimes but I have been seen by an ENT and he does not think it is TMJ at ALL, yet he thinks I have some residual issues in my left ear tube due to a virus a few months back and that is causing pressure, ect. Anyway, I am afraid of this filling tomorrow since it is RIGHT next to the extraction site. I am afraid of the following:

1. The shot....I am going to request NO epi
2. Reading about Trig neuralgia and how that can start from a dental shot, do you know much about this? Could I have Trig neuralgia or would I be in constant pain if I had this from the wisdom tooth removal on Nov 1?
3. Can I get the cavity filled without novocaine?
4. Do you recommend I just have them "watch" the cavity, since it is smaller, until I get this whole sinus/ear issue resolved?

Any advice, as usual, would be appreciated.

Thank you!!!
