[F]Hi
I've had a tooth nightmare since October... beginning with the removal of an old filling and ending with a root canal two months later. The tooth hurt constantly and is finally settling down. (I had the root canal in dec.) although the throbbing has finally stopped it is still sensitive to bite down on. I also still have the temp. filling that was put in when I had the root canal. My dentist didn't want to do a crown until the pain was gone. Now he says he can probably just fill it because he said it seems like there is enough enamel on the tooth to support the filling. Does this make any sense to anyone?
I think it's because he knows it's still sensitive... and shouldn't be . He asked me what I WANTED TO DO. Well, how should I know what's best... HE'S the dentist.
What is the BEST thing to do at this point...
