The dentist suspects a cracked tooth. It really hurts when I bit down on it. I just found out I grind my teeth and my back teeth have been worn right down. This might have made my teeth more prone to cracking.
It hurt a lot two days ago. Now the pulp has died. I wonder if it just died. The pulp is dead, but it's still painful. The dentist says the fractured piece must be irritating the nerves below the tooth or something like that.
I need to see a specialist, but it's a really long wait.
I'm just going to hope the pain doesn't get too bad. At least I have some Tylenol 3's, hopefully they work better than Advils.
