I was in a lot of pain and slept two hours last night. Went to an emergency Saturday appointment today.

Consult with dentist, who was very thorough, took her time, and explained everything to me with care
X-ray
antibiotic prescription filled.

Dentistry is not generally covered by the national healthcare system here.

Total cost, 15 euros. Or, under 16 bucks.

Make sure to take a multi-strain large dose (like 100 Billion CFU) probiotic. Offset it from your antibiotic dose time.
.. This is very important.

Hold on to your wallet.
Tooth pain is the worst, I hope you're feeling better.

I have issues with my teeth also, antibiotics is the key.. I've tried throwing every painkiller I can at it since antibiotics require a doctor's visit.. I swear it boggles the mind how it works.. bootleg antibiotics now there's a racket
Pet Supply shops used to carry antibiotics which didn't require a script, not sure if they still do or not.
