I have a infected tooth widom tooth and it hurts so much sometimes and I can feel a pulse below it in my gun an it makes my other tooth next to it hurt. I have been the dentist and they tried pulling it out but it was to painfull when they tried even after 5 or so needles I am just wondering if I can go to my GP an ask then to sent me to a specialist or a private dentist to be put under anesthetic because I wont go near any needles no more?
Hello, thank you for sharing your problem with us. When a tooth is infected, and it is painful, and it means there can be an abscess (collection of pus) below the tooth, and because of this abscess the anesthesia takes time to become effective, and also sometimes wisdom tooth are placed diagonally or obliquely which makes it difficult to be removed. It will be better for you that you should visit an oral surgeon as they are specialized for this kind of cases as he will first take x-ray, diagnose the position of tooth, and then he will manage to take out the tooth.
