Hi.My dentist says I need a root canal.I have had the usual pain sensitivity ect..The x-ray showed nothing...go figure.This tooth has been drilled twice before and on the last drilling the tooth wouldnt freeze properly.My dentist figures that its not freezing because there is infection.Okay fair enough.He put me on erythromicin,it didnt work.I went for my first appointment,he froze me very well,right to the top of my head,it lasted for 4 hours..BUT...the tooth still would not freeze. He didnt tell me that the infection was gone when the sensitivity was gone.So we both felt stupid. Now I'm on clyndamicin, its been 5 days and it doesnt seem to be working.What is going on.Any insight.Dont forget the x-ray showed nothing ,should I just wait untill the tooth is really dead ,or is that too late.My stomach is taking a real beating ,I dont know how much more antibiotics i can take.HELP.
