I went to the dentist 2 days ago. had novacaine had ftront upper teeth worked on, filling and crown. within 30 mins I started sneezing and my right sinus starting draining ALOT. It is still draining but not as much but my nose feels itchy. What do you think? Is it a reaction that will go away or could it be a sinus infection I don t have any pain in my sinus.

Dentist 's  Response
Hello.Read through ur query.Accordingly I must say that nothing much to be worried in this case.It may be due to the sinus infection caused due to pushing of filling material in the upper tooth into sinus(as root of some tooth are very close to or even inside the sinus).So I suggest you to finish the antibiotic dose by the dentist and see for few days and if still the problem persists get an xray of the sinus and tooth taken and meet the dentist and get the filling adjusted.Be cool and stay calm.Cool and happy mind is the best medicine for all diseases.Hope you are benefitted something from this reply.Have a healthy day!!!!
