Went to the dentist yesterday to have crown fitted. It's fabulous. Mentioned at the time that a different tooth was hurting in an odd way. It's intermittent, throbs slightly when I bend down, hurts when you push on it. Dentist had a look and found some debris between that and the next tooth which he felt had irritated the tooth. He checked x rays from a couple of months back, no sign of anything brewing. Trouble is, it's been three days now and it's starting to drive me mad. Should I start on the antibiotics I have or leave it and see if I can get another appointment tomorrow. He did say that he could see no sign of an infection, there is no swelling and the pain is very localised.
