Dentist,  's  Response
Thanks for using health care magic.

Read your query.

I would advice you to continue the medication prescribed by your dentist and if there is infection you have to start a dose of antibiotics Cap Amoxicillin (if you are not allergic to any medicine) and Tab Metrolag 200mg for five days (Consult your dentist also).

Do warm saline gargling and keep the tooth area clean.

If the dentist has taken radiograph and adviced removal of that tooth ,then do proceed with it.

Hope this was beneficial.

Thanks and warm regards.
