Hi, I have an infected wisdom tooth (bottom left) and have been on three different antibotics this past month or so. My dentist isnt going to take it out because he wants to give it chance to come through (slightly impacted) I have been feeling dizzy for four days now and im worried as i dont feel right. Should i just wait awhile and let the antibotics do its work or should i visit the doctors?Thanks.
Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Read your query. Erupting wisdom tooth do cause a lot of pain and get sometimes infected during eruption. I would advise you to get a radiograph done and see the position of the erupting tooth and if impacted you can get it removed by the oral and maxillofacial surgeon. If according to the radiograph there are chances of its normal eruption, it is advised to wait for a while. For the pain you can continue the medicine as prescribed and avoiding injudicious use of antibiotics. Do saline gargling and keep the area clean from the food debris. Hope this was of good help for you. Thanks and regards.
