I have a root canal treated top six. After visiting the next day, my nose started to leak. I found out that this tooth is connected to the maxillary sinus and the dentist has probably punched too far. I took a pantomographic picture and after seeing it, my dentist sent me for a consultation with an ENT specialist. I am waiting for an appointment - my appointment is in a week, but I do not know if it is safe to wait this long? Should I find a doctor who will see me privately? Should I fight for this tooth or is it better to remove it in this situation? What about this bay now? Please help
The matter is not as serious as you refer to it. It happens. The ENT specialist with whom you have made an appointment will decide on the further procedure. Regards, Prof. A. Chairs
