Flap Surgery Done
I have had serious teeth irritation and sensations which led to dental flap surgery 2 months back. I consulted 3 doctors before proceeding with the surgery for second opinions. Post surgery, irritation is somewhat relieved but not sensations. Sensations comes across teeths. Although i had minor back neck spasm along with teeth irritation, i did not pay more attention on neck. After the surgery, i still have sensations to cold, hot or spicy items. Difficult to drink even cold/hot water. I have used all types of desensitized gel, mouthwash and toothpastes with no breakthrough. I have noticed that neck spasm happens along with the uneasiness with the teeth. Also i have showed up an orthopedic doctor with an xray thinking this could be from neck/spine. But xray was neat, there is no major irregularities. I am worried as 2 months have already past surgery, and there is no relief yet. Sometimes i wonder if this is aftereffects of surgery. Please advise and help.

Neck spasms can't be side effect of flap surgery. Could be because of the stress you are feeling during teeth pain and sensitivity... For sensitivity you can try laser therapy..
