[|Human|] Hi there. About 6-7 months ago, i went to the dentist and had one tooth extraction & one filling. Now, months later, the tooth i had filled has become very painful. I cant eat because it hurts to bite down, i cant sleep because of the level of pain im experiencing. I am absolutely terrified of dentists, so what should i do?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The pain in the tooth is because of the infection involving the pulp and the root tip of the tooth. Consult an oral physician and get a radiograph done to rule out the infection. If the tooth is infected then you can get the tooth restored with RCT. Meanwhile you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin 500 mg and metronidazole 400 mg TID for 5 days (if you are not allergic). I hope my answer will help you, take care.
