The first method used by the public for toothache is antibiotics, but are antibiotics as innocent as you think?
A severe pain in the tooth indicates that that tooth has begun to become inflamed, and the pain increases especially at night due to the increase in histamine in our body. . In such cases, unconscious use of antibiotics serves no purpose other than delaying the treatment.
In case of severe toothache, a physician should be consulted and the physician should prescribe antibiotics if necessary. The antibiotic used will relieve your tooth within 48 hours, and the pain will be minimized after 4-5 days. The tooth should be treated immediately after the use of antibiotics, otherwise this pain and inflammation will recur and get worse.
Antibiotics temporarily relieve the toothache, it does not treat your tooth in any way for the next attack of inflammation. . The best way to deal with your inflamed tooth, that is, causing severe pain, is to use medication under the supervision of a dentist and have your treatment done immediately after the medication.
Is there pain in a tooth with a filling?
Filling is to clean the tooth decay and restore the tooth to its former appearance and function with filling materials such as composite/amalgam. (I will talk about the use of amalgam as a filling material in another article)
In filled teeth, the carious tissue of the tooth is removed from the tooth and filled with filling materials similar to dental tissue. There may be several reasons for pain after the filling.
Every part of our body needs a period of time to accept a substance, no matter how similar it is to itself. Since the composites we use as filling materials resemble dental tissue, they do not cause any serious problems in this process.
A second cause of pain is that the closer tooth decay is to the nerve of the tooth, the more the nerve will be affected and cause pain. These pains vary with the distance of the decay to the nerve, that is, the closer the decay is to the nerve of the tooth, the greater the pain will be. If the tooth decay is detected early and is small, a painless process will await us.
We need to wait approximately 1 week and 10 days after the filling. If there is gradually increasing pain, root canal treatment is applied.
