Complained on and off for last 2 weeks. Randomly burst into tears with pain last week so I took her to dentist - checked over can't see anything wrong- no infection/swollen gums etc.
Had her checked over by a gp in case it was referred pain from an earache or something- he also said everything fine.
Picked her up from school on Thursday and teacher said she had been crying in pain for the last 20 mins with her teeth. Now she is not a complainer, and I'm especially surprised she cried in school.
So back to the dentist we went yesterday, another look still nothing to report. Told to see how she goes and if comes back again they may prescribe antibiotics in case it's the beginning of an infection, however to cause her to cry in pain she said would expect visible signs.
Most of the day she doesn't mention it, when she does she just says she can feel it but it's not really bad. And then she woke up at 4am last night screaming crying in pain and I just don't know what to do?
What else could it be if not her tooth? I feel her cheek looks ever so slightly swollen (which her dad also noticed) but when mentioned to the doctor he said they look fine but he's obviously not sure what it normally looks like ha!
Any ideas? Do I keep pestering the dentist? Do I give her antibiotics even tho there is no sign of ab infection ? Help :(
