Do I need RC or it is something else?
Hello! I have one of my molars with white filling. Since last two days my lower jaw started paining. I can eat from that side, but to avoid any pain(I read somewhere) I am nt eating from that side. This molar has developed sensitivity, which has gone worst since last 12 hrs. In the morning had a shooting pain while having tea, that was up to my ear. In short the is shooting pain in between during day time, while having any cold-hot liquids and dull ache to the lower jaw and part of upper jaw.
