This is really freaking me out, and my dentist isn't open, nor do I have insurance.
I have had an abscessed tooth before, I had pain in that tooth off and on for years. Eventually, I went and had it removed after a round of antibiotics.
Now, I have another molar that hurts, it's dull and not very sharp, the last time it actively hurt was about a year ago, and has started recently, last week for like a day where it hurt to even eat on that side for a couple hours, then went away and it's back again.
This tooth has a filling in it, as does the tooth next to it (no tooth on the other side of it), and this tooth has forever been sensitive to everything. She said after she filled it, that she had to drill deeper than she was planning, as the decay was deeper, and the filling still feels smooth, as does the filling of the tooth next to it. It was filled I believe 3 years ago. I highly suspect that I will need a root canal on it
If it comes down to that, I'll ask to have it extracted. I'm really freaking myself out thinking it may be abscessed, though there isn't any signs to it :/
