Hello,
I went to the dentist Saturday for 3 fillings. As he did one he said that, upon closer inspection, the tooth would need a crown and possibly a root canal if the tooth still hurt after the filling. Shouldn't the dentist have noticed the severity of the decay in the first place?
Also, now my jaw on the side that the rotten tooth is is hurting, I can't discern if it is my jaw muscle that is sore or if my tooth that is in need of a root canal. How can I tell the difference?
