I feel like my tooth has came out of my gums a little bit. I can't bite down anymore.?

Question

Actually I know it has. Because when I bite down that tooth hits my bottom teeth first. Here's the story {It's a little confusing}

On Friday evening I started feeling sick. By Friday night I had a 104.0 fever. NO TOOTH PAIN AT ALL. I thought I had the flu or a really bad cold. So I took some advil and went to bed. The next morning my back wisdom tooth was aching a little bit {had only partially grown in}. The gums around the wisdom tooth hurt like the dickens! But the actual tooth didn't. My friend had just had a brand new prescription for some Clindamycin, she gave it to me. After the 3rd day of the antibiotics that tooth and the gums around it stopped hurting COMPLETELY!

Only the next day on the top row of my teeth a tooth {the one right before the wisdom tooth} felt like it had came out of my gums a little bit. I have had work done on that tooth before {I can't remember if it was a root canal or a cap or what it was} anyway when I bite down that tooth hits the bottom teeth first and HURTS LIKE h**l!

I know I need to go to the dentist. I will....................

But does anyone know if maybe the antibiotics could have cause something weird to happen in my gums. Or is this just a case of unluckiness?!!

Answer 1

This is soooo weird because the same thing happen to me on Friday! And then I was prescribed Clindamycin on Sat. for my tooth infection. Now my tooth feels loose and my gums are super sore. I also cannot eat anything hard because of that darn tooth! So weird!
