I had a tooth out yesterday. On Christmas day my jaw near my ear swelled up but it had gone down the next day. I mentioned it to my GP who just shrugged his shoulders and said if it swells up again to tell him.
On Friday I suddenly got a massive neuralgic pain on the left side of my face. I figured it might be a tooth ache, but which tooth? They all looked fine to me and they did to my dentist too and we were both baffled until he took an xray. On my molar, one one of the roots had an abscess. It had a deep filling on the tooth but it had been there for 30 yrs and there was nothing wrong with it. The tooth was just suddenly dying. I hope no more decide to go the same way as i have another 3 to 8 years on this hormone therapy.
