Asked By:ohhmyjd in Philippines, PH

Hi. i was having with my crowns. They were hurting. The doctor saw in the xray that my crowns need to be replaced because it has an infection but since i have tmj the doctor cannot do long procedures, so the doctor just did 3 fillings but no injections or whatsoever and she cleaned my teeth because it might help reduce the pain coz it might be just a dirt trapped in there. After a few hours my top lip is swelling but its not numb. The doctor advised me to take antibiotics-amoxil
