Xray of 46.Anything wrong on socket xray

2023-06-30 11:45:34
I extracted #46 in July 2022. I have had several RCT and retreatments on it before pulling it. It was so painful but nothing seen on the CBCT scans. I have pain in the second molar 47 now. Severe gum pain and gum looks swollen but dentist said it's ok. And denied for root canal. It's throbbing pain in 47 gums and wake me up at night. I went to dentist and got xrays. Is my x-ray shows anything wrong on 46 and 47? Is 46 x-ray looks good? I see the border of that tooth in the x-ray. Is this normal? I see other extracted tooth normal but #46 border was seen on the x-rays. Is this how the xrays will be after an year of extraction? Do I have any periapical or periodontal infection seen on the 46,47, 48? Severe pain in the buccal and distal side gum of 47. Throbbing pain. Do I need to ext it?

It's important to consult with a qualified dentist or dental specialist who can evaluate your X-rays, conduct a thorough examination, and provide an accurate diagnosis based on your symptoms and clinical findings. X-rays are an essential tool in dental diagnosis, but they should be interpreted by a dental professional who can assess the specific details of your case. They will consider factors such as the condition of the teeth, the bone structure, and any signs of infection or inflammation. If you're experiencing severe gum pain and swelling around tooth #47, it's important to communicate your symptoms to your dentist. They may perform further examinations or tests, such as periodontal probing or additional imaging, to assess the condition of the tooth and surrounding structures accurately. Based on the information you provided, it's challenging to determine the exact cause of your symptoms or if extraction is necessary. Only a dental professional who has access to your complete dental history, clinical examination, and imaging can provide you with a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. I recommend scheduling an appointment with your dentist or seeking a second opinion from another qualified dental professional. They will be able to evaluate your situation comprehensively and provide appropriate guidance and treatment options based on your specific needs.
