What causes pain in right upper teeth?
Patient: I woke up Saturday morning with my right upper tooth hurting. I assumed it was a toothache during day on Saturday and Sunday it has got worse. Now I can not touch 3 of my teeth with finger or food and it hurts up in to my cheat. Do I go to ER or call emergency number for dentist Doctor: Hi Dear,Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of pain in right upper teeth which seems to be due to exposure to nerve root endings due to severe attrition, stress, malocclusion and underlying systemic pathology.Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit oral and maxillofacial surgeon once and get complete examination done. You should go for clinical evaluation and intraoperative periapical radiograph and start treatment accordingly. You should go for root canal treatment and composite resin restoration. Avoid intake of cold substances and hot liquids as well. Maintain hygiene of oral cavity and avoid sticky food.Hope your concern has been resolved.Get Well Soon.Best Wishes,Dr. Harry Maheshwari
