Extraction set for Monday, quick question please
Hi again Bryanna,
Thank you for being here with your advise. Per this site I am running with no root canal and extraction of tooth number 4. This tooth now has severe pain in the root, its effecting my surrounding teeth, pain when biting down, severe shock in temp, and galvantic shock. Went to my dentist and was suprised to hear fractured root. He wanted me to get a root canal and crown I said hell to the no. Pull it. I called him back 5 days after seeing him and told his office I decided to extract and would he please do it, she asked him, he said it was against his advice but he would do it. Without scaring me too bad, lol is it common for the tooth to break inside the socket while he is pulling it out? It cant be seen on xray, the fracture,. My pain is nothing I have ever had before, its like a socket pain, he explained that all the nerves are firing and thus the pain on the other teeth. He said also once this is gone my other teeth will go back to normal no excruciating pain with temps on the other upper teeth. Keeping fingers crossed. Now I am questioning if its tooth number 4, lol irrational, imaging pulling the wrong tooth. The problem is as you know its not in the tooth, its in the socket, I am willing to bet the fracture is near the gum line this hurts when I touch the area with my tounge. I have been lucky and no infection just huge anxiety, my panic attacks are starting to kick in. I love this dentist, he is straight to the point, not trying to sell you on your other teeth, very conservative. He was very gentle and quick on my last extraction, he put gelfoam in the site and stitched it afterwards as a precaution to dry socket. Because of you alone I didnt even consider a root canal it was an automatic no thank you. Thank you again........
