A member asked:
Why would it be that my tooth is giving off a sweet metal taste?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too little info: Without having more information or seeing your tooth it would be hard to determine. Does the tooth have a metal milling, decay or is it broken? Do you currently have any metal fillings in your teeth? Any allergies? This is why a dentist needs to see you to thoroughly evaluate your tooth and determine the exact problem.
