Hiii... I'm 35 years old... I had a cavity in my tooth and it was causing pain, especially at night. However, the pain used to go away on its own without any medication. When I visited the dentist, they recommended a root canal treatment (RCT). However, they also suggested trying a temporary filling first to see if the tooth could be managed without an RCT. They said that if there was no pain after the filling, we could continue with it; otherwise, an RCT would be necessary.
Yesterday morning, I got the filling done. After returning home, I started experiencing very severe tooth pain in the evening—much worse than I had ever felt before. We called the dentist, and they prescribed a painkiller and an antibiotic and again advised an RCT.....i wanted to ask whether getting the filling was the wrong decision. What could be the reason for such severe pain after the filling?
Hello doctors, I am a 20 year old female, having T1D for 12 years and on insulin. I also have thyroid and I'm on depression medicines. I am having pain in the cheeks while biting, when I join the teeth, the skin of my cheeks bite. It pains and sometimes bleeds too only when I touch it. If the wisdom tooth is erupting. What should be done. Am I eligible for the surgery because I am diabetic and also my sugars are high.
Please help. I have also shared some pictures.

I have noticed a new, extra tooth growing above my left molar, and it has started causing me pain. Is the removal process for a supernumerary/extra tooth painful, and what are the next steps I should take?
