Sometimes it happens that after a visit to the dentist and carrying out all the procedures, the tooth under the seal still hurts. With what it is connected, and whether the result is a poor-quality work of a specialist or a feature of the body?
Why does the tooth hurt under the seal?
So, if you put a seal and the tooth hurts, you can assume several main reasons that can provoke it:
- cleaning of poor quality;
- caries moved into deeper layers;
- the appearance of periodontitis;
- inflammatory process, for example, cyst;
- an allergic reaction to the material;
- poor-quality filling;
- non-observance of hygiene rules.
Low-quality cleaning of caries happens due to the inattention of the dentist, who did not handle the affected area with sufficient quality and care. After filling, even the smallest particles of caries or bacteria can provoke the process of further tooth decay.
It happens that caries can affect deeper layers and penetrate the dentin. In the process of filling the tooth, pain can not be felt especially due to anesthesia, but after the end of its action, the pain may appear. If after a few days they do not pass, then you should definitely consult a doctor.
Often it happens that if the tooth is hurt under the seal, then, perhaps, the caries has penetrated into the deep layers and reached the periodontal region. In this case, you should immediately carry out quality treatment. There are situations when the tooth is completely treated and removed all the nerves. This procedure also does not mean that this tooth will not bother you. It becomes inanimate and can change its color over time. It happens that even a dead tooth hurts under the seal. It can also be associated with periodontal inflammation and deep penetration of caries.
The initiated inflammatory processes can pass into more dangerous forms, for example, in the cyst, which can appear almost unnoticeably, for a long time. But the most unpleasant happens when, in the development of complications, bone tissue is destroyed and later can not be restored.
Of course, it happens that a person has an allergic reaction to the components and composition of the seal. If this is the case, the doctor must choose a different composition, otherwise the pain will never pass and can provoke other health problems.
Therefore, if you have a toothache with a seal, do not expect a miracle, but immediately contact a specialist. In that case, time does not work for you.
Features of temporary seals
During the treatment of caries, pulpitis or inflamed channels of the tooth often put temporary seals. Its composition is soft enough and after a while it can fall out on its own. Its task is to isolate the treated cavity of the tooth. But in no case it will not replace a full-fledged seal, which is put after the end of treatment. Most often its term is not long from several days to one month.
At the same time, under the temporary filling can hurt the tooth, but it is quite normal, because the treatment process is under way. Most often, discomfort is short-lived and quickly subsiding.
- ignoring the doctor's advice on caring for a sick tooth;
- allergic reaction to components or drugs for treatment;
- improper application of the filling mixture.
Of course, in this case, you can use folk remedies to reduce pain. For example, it is useful to rinse the mouth with medicinal decoctions. But, in fact, such self-medication can lead to more disastrous consequences, and therefore it is best to visit your doctor again, who may change the composition of medicines or put a new temporary seal.
