The dentist will root my tooth and today, during the first visit, he removed the nerves and probably put some poison. He said the tooth was dead. Upon arriving home, I felt a strange and bitter taste in my mouth. This flavor persists despite brushing your teeth several times. I couldn't sleep because of him at night. Is it normal and safe for my baby (breastfeeding)? How do I get rid of this taste and will it pass, will I have to struggle with it until my next visit?

The outer dressings have that taste. It is not harmful. If you cannot function with it until the next visit, certainly in 7 days, I advise you to report to the attending physician. However, any other remedy will have an unpleasant taste.

Remember that our expert's answer is informative and will not replace a visit to the doctor.
