Is it normal for other teeth or tooth to be sensative after a tooth filling or crown?

Question

At the moment one of my top back Wisdom tooth/teeth are sensative after my front Molar was scrapped and filled in order for a crown to be put in next week. Is it possible for the other tooth or teeth to feel sensative even if they are three or four teeth apart? if so why does that happen, because nerves are connected or something or should only the tooth/teeth right next to the one being worked on feel sensative & not the one few teeth apart. Thanks.

Answer 1

you must inform your dentist that you have pain in your gum. and the may be able to give you pain killers in pills or cream. or just phone into the ur dentist and the will give you the name of the products ok  

Answer 2

Sometimes pain in your teeth can radiate to other areas and it can be hard to tell exactly where the pain is coming from.  A dentist can do a test by having you bite on a wooden stick around different areas of each tooth to figure out where it's actually coming from.  I needed a root canal on a lower molar, but I always thought it was the molar next to it because of the pain.  If you just had a bunch of work done (especially to prepare for a crown), that tooth's nerve chamber is probably inflamed and irritated and your feeling it elsewhere.  And yes there is a nerve that connects to all of your back teeth (that same nerve doesn't connect to your front teeth).

Answer 3

yes your gums and teeth need to heal, everything will be fine!
