Hello doctor,
Early today, I was at the dentist's because of a sharp pulsating pain in my tooth. The doctor opened the tooth, cleared the root canal with those little needles, and he left the tooth open and put some medicine in and a piece of cotton. The dentist told me to come back in a week or so when the pain stops. The pain stopped immediately when my tooth was opened, and I am okay now. It only hurts a little. I would like to know if is it fine to smoke with an open tooth? Will smoking make the pain worse? Will it pain like a dry socket which happens after tooth extraction?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Keep me updated with the improvements. Regards.
