Tooth pain: Maybe or maybe not. Depends on how long until rct. Antibiotic may by you some more time but they are already overused and throw your system out of balance. Get in asap and get tx completed . Pain meds to little for tooth pain. You can be totally snowed with pain med and still feel tooth throbbing.

Another form of: Pain control is auricular acupuncture. Small semi-permanent needles are placed in the ears where they remain from 1 to 7 days. Please ensure that the specialist who is going to do your root canal is aware of how excruciating your pain is.
