Go ASAP. I had a 28 yr old filling break 7 weeks ago and it cause my entire tooth to crack 2 weeks ago. Last week my dentist tried to do a root canal and a crown; he could do neither. Tomorrow I am seeing a specialist for TMJ because, apparently I have this. Basically, my jaw to skull joint is out of whack. I need to see this specialist to then see a specialist that does root canals and crowns to people with TMJ. For the pain- I took 6-8 Advil a day since it was bad (don't do it- it can be bad on the liver). Then a friend recommended Ambesol. I was Ambesol-ing the area all the time until I could see my doc (4 days I had to wait!). My doc gave me Hydrocodone and Penicillin (I had a small infection as well). So, I feel your pain. Take Advil and Ambesol and see your dentist ASAP. Hope you feel better!

What ever med is I would take that because it is probably numbing medicine. The laughing gas just calms you down. It doesn't even take the pain away. The numbing medicine hurts when they stick you with it but after that your fine and you just feel pressure and no pain.
