tooth pain

by marnagelman, Jun 06, 2007 12:00AM
I have severe pain in my tooth opposing a crown that was put in last month. I went to the dentist and the xray showed there was no cavity.  He said we would monitor the tooth and I should come back in a month, but I am in severe pain.

I have never had a filling in this tooth.  There is no pain in my gum, but the pain in the tooth is so strong and lasts for at least a minute at a time.  It is recurring and does not only come when I drink something hot or cold.  In fact, I have started to drink cold water during pain attacks because I prefer that pain to the pain I feel.

HELP!  What is wrong with me?

it may have a fracture or the crown you just had inserted may need to be adjusted because it is hitting this tooth prematurely. f you are getting no help from your dentist, I'd get another opinion, perhaps from an endodontist.
