Hi
I've been struggling with severe tooth pain for about 1.5 weeks now. Saw my dentist 5 days ago who said he didn't want to give me xrays because of baby and because the pain is coming from a tooth that I had root canal on years ago, he could only give me antibiotics for week and to go back and review in a few days time. I've been taking the antibiotics but the pain is still there. He did say that he wouldn't take the tooth out until after baby born but I can't stand this pain for another 10 weeks! Has anyone had anything similar or have any advice? Just worried that if the antibiotics don't work, I don't want the infection to harm the baby.
