I'm coming up on 48 hrs since Itook the first pill and I'm still in a great deal of pain.
The dentist is also planning on doing a root canal on thistooth in a few days, but in the meantime, should the amoxicillin
eventually get rid of the pain, or will I need to keep relying on
Aleve until the root canal?
To me, this situation is an emergency and should be treated on the
day it is reported, or most certainly the next for a REGULAR PATIENT.
Take a shorter lunch, work past 5:00, or cancel a non-emergency
patient.
If there is not time to treat a new patient quickly, they should be
told to try and find someone who can see them sooner.
How can you tell your patients in pain, "I'll get to it in a
week or so"?

Agreed.
