Hi.  I chiped one of my front teeth over the weekend.  I went for x-rays, and the dentist said that the nerve to the tooth might have been damaged.  He gave me some antibiotics (Ciploxx500)....Why the antibiotics? and what will happen if the nerve have been damaged?Thank you
Hello thanks for consulting at Chat Doctor.it is due to trauma to pulp resulting in death of pulp which innervates the tooth, hence the antibiotics, take full course and get root canal treatment for the same with your dentist, hp it helps.TC.
