[QUOTE="Metabolism_Boss, post: 2309294, member: 407045"] So horrible for you. I know how quickly this can happen. Before I was diagnosed with diabetes, I called my dentist to ask for an appointment as I was getting a bit of a twinge in one of my teeth. "Wednesday OK?" "Fine". Two hours later I had to call back and ask for an emergency appointment, as the twinge turned into hell. The reason you have to wait after a recurrence of the infection, is that the bacteria in the tooth turn the gum and tooth environment acid, which stops the local anaesthetic working properly.
