Dental pain question?

Asked by Shippy (10015points) February 15th, 2013

My temporary tooth fell off the other day, and after a week wait I managed to get to see my Dentist. I had pushed the tooth back to cover the area. He blew it with that air devise to clean it, checked it and replaced the temp tooth. Prior to that I had a wisdom tooth filling done by him. The roots on that upper area are all good ( As per Xray). In fact he seems pleased with whole process. But I have pain in my jaw all along that side since my temp tooth fell out and was replaced. Which includes the wisdom filling. (Which was checked out as OK previously).

He blew air on it without injection so it was painful. Is this a type of neuralgia perhaps? I really hate going there and am there so often. So any thoughts appreciated. Aside from go back! Thanks.
