You should contact the oral surgeon and see if increasing the dosage of motrin is appropriate. I'm surprised the endodontist missed the abscess on #29. Call your oral surgeon for some home care instructions as well. Once the abscess is taken care of, it should feel much better. No antibiotics?
I am having a similar problem after visiting the dentist a week ago to
replace an old filling. I am having alot of pain when I am eatting, or
if I yawn in my jaw, and ear.
im haveing the same sort of problem my jaw is hurting 8 days after a filling on my top and bottem teeth in the back of my mouth but were my tongue was num it hurts and i have swelling and sore were i was injected with novican 3 time
and it feels like the pain is getting worse
200 mg of motrin won't cut it. I am having the same issue right now, but mine was a crown from a week ago. Dentist thinks it's due to the novacaine injection site. I am taking 600-800 mg of motrin every 6-8 hours. You can have 2400 mg of motrin/ibuprofen in a 24 hr period and it's ok. I hope both of our pain goes away soon, it's getting annoying!!
