u have to extract the root even if it gets to surgical extraction because the root act as a foreign body now and your pain killer will kill the pain for a few hours but it will return again eventually so i suggest u pick up your boots for ur dentist right away
Reply:I would call my dentist right away. I just had a root canal a few weeks ago. I can't describe the pain leading up to that. After the root canal I experienced some swelling and within a week it was healed.





Try sleeping sitting up. I propped myself on pillows. I took and over the counter Aleeve, and Hydro's didn't touch the pain, I had to get some oxycodine. That was the first time ever on that pain med, it worked great.





Call your dentist, he may call you in something.
