I went to dentist last week and had fillings put in 3 back molars. I am 37 and never had a filling before. He said the teeth werent bad but just some minor tooth decay starting and otherwise my mouth/teeth were in very excellent shape. Never having a filling before I didnt know what to expect. Since the numbing meds wore off I have been in excruiating pain and 2 days later woke up to a completely swollen mouth and face. Every tooth in my mouth hurts, I cant chew or even drink, my gums are all severely swollen as well as my face and neck and also swollen glands. I saw my family doctor, he prescribed an antiviral and also tetracycline (penicillin allergy), and I am taking vicodin every 4 hrs and still hurt. Monday will be a week since I started the medicine and I am no better. Could it be a sensivity to the fillings?? He used the amagram for the fillings Any help would be greatly appreciated.
