Hello Ma’am,
Based on your symptoms, you may require Root Canal Treatment (RCT) if the infection has reached the nerve of the tooth.
In this procedure:
• The infected pulp is removed
• The canals are cleaned and disinfected
• The tooth is then filled and sealed
After the treatment, a crown is usually placed to strengthen the tooth and restore proper function.
Delaying treatment can allow the infection to spread to the jaw or surrounding areas. Early treatment helps reduce pain, lowers cost, and improves long-term outcomes.
Kindly visit the clinic for a proper check-up and X-ray so we can confirm the diagnosis and start the appropriate treatment.

Slight swelling in the cheek along with pain in the lower teeth while eating and sensitivity to cold may indicate tooth decay, gum infection, or an abscess in the affected tooth.
It is best to get it checked as soon as possible to prevent the swelling or infection from increasing. Until then, avoid very hot, cold, or hard foods and keep the area clean.
Contact your dentist for more information or contact Smile Makeover Clinic.
