Do I need a dental X-ray to check for a cavity if my left back tooth still hurts when I bite down, even after taking Mox CV for three days?

Asked by Male, 27 · 22 days ago

Yes, having a dental X-ray is highly recommended. While Mox CV (amoxicillin/clavulanic acid) is excellent for clearing up bacterial infections, it cannot fix structural problems like a deep cavity, a cracked tooth, or nerve issues. An X-ray is a safe, simple step that allows your dentist to see exactly what is happening beneath the surface and treat the true cause of your pain. Please schedule an appointment with your dentist soon so they can help you find relief. In the meantime, try to avoid chewing on that side.
