David,

Okay, glad to know that you have private dental care.

The fact that you had an adjacent tooth removed just a couple of months ago makes me curious if there is an infection brewing and perhaps both areas are involved.

Can't this dentist give you the name of an oral surgeon in private practice? Not as a formal referral but as an offering to a patient seeking further evaluation?

The panoramic xray is a 2 dimensional xray that shows the upper and lower arches in their entirety, the maxillary sinus cavity, anterior nasal passages, etc. But only in 2 dimensions.

The dental CT scan is a 3 dimensional scan which shows a comprehensive view of the dental and sinus anatomy is slices or cuts, meaning more angles.

Antibiotics may or may not be warranted. I think they should only be given if absolutely necessary. It's best to get a proper diagnosis first and then see what the options are from there.

My dentist is private (a mercury free one) when I went back to him I should have got prescription for anti-biotics incase, I forgot to ask him.
He did say tooth came out cleanly. He did take xray after. A tooth next to it was taken out couple months ago.
I have been looking for an oral surgeon private practice online and need to book in today with someone.
(As regards my mcs I have had sensitivities since I was 18 mildly up until 8 years ago) I brought on the mcs by doing liver flushing several times then became really sensitive to all chemicals. I would love to go into this more with you in detail another time. Finding it hard to even type now.

A couple of places I have in mind to see on oral surgeon. Need to call first thing in the morning see if any can see me today. dont really have the finances but cant be waiting on referal to nhs. let it go on the credit card. this is too important to sit around on. I dread to think how I am gonna be on the anti-biotics.
Is ct xray the best one I think both of the practices have them (not 3d ones) with panoramic show all thats needed. is the ct one instance results?
