Hi there ,
I have had a toothache now for 2 months due to a hole in my tooth
and a few cavaties.I attended the emergency dentist a few times
over the past 6 months but couldn't go through with the treatment
due to being very anxious! In the end a emergency dental nurse
refered me over to a special dental clinic that deals with nervous
and anxious patients.I bravely went along 6 weeks ago and the
dentist and dental nurse were great.The dentist said on my next
appointment she was going to do a filling and even if I can't go
through with it on the day,she would clean my teeth instead.I left
the dental surgery feeling quite confident and happy that
everything would be fine! My next appointment was due on the
25th July and because of the floods we have had in
Gloucestershire it was cancelled due to no power etc.They rang
me and said they will be in touch in a couple weeks to renew my
appointment.I still haven't heard back from them yet and I'm still
suffering terrible toothache which is worst at night and always
around tea time.I am getting rather worried as I have been taking
2-4 Paracetmols,sometimes 6 for nearly 2 months now and I'm
wondering whether this is safe and if it's ok to carry on taking
them till I see my dentist! I also have Graves disease and worried
about the injection I will have for my upcoming filling.
Any help would be really appreciated regarding the Paracetmols
and injections.
Thank you
Jane
