earlier this week, i started getting really bad pains in the upper back right side of my mouth.... i assumed it was one of my wisdom teeth coming in... the pain was mild at first.. but then it just got worse... i tried taking extra strength Tylenol, Advil, and i went to walmart and bought some Ambesol to put on it, but nothing was helping... i tried to go to sleep that night and i did.. for only about an hour an a half! ..the pain got so horrible, it woke me up and i couldnt get back to sleep.. i started getting headaches and earaches on the right side of my face where the tooth pain was... Finally, it was about 4 in the morning and the pain was so unbearable that i went to the hospital... they told me i had a "Dental abscess" and my back tooth was cracked... they wrote me up a prescription for Penicillin and Percocet, and its been helping with the pain, but i dont know what comes next? I know i need to see my dentist.. but what do they do about abscessed teeth? ...someone inform me!!
