A member asked:
I have a very bad teeth pain. dentist is fully booked. is there a antibiotic that i can get the help with the infection before getting to the dentist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection?: Just because you are in pain does not mean you have an infection. See if the dentist you have an appointment with can take a quick look and prescribe medications until your visit.
