[/INST] Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have infected tooth. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like tooth, abscess, pulpits or gingivitis. I would suggest you to consult dentist again as you have already fixed appointment. Doctor may perform oral prophylaxis. Doctor may order x-ray of tooth to confirm the diagnosis. Doctor may also check the tooth for tenderness and check level of infection. If infection has already affected the pulp then doctor may recommend root canal therapy along with crown on it. For now do warm saline rinses several times a day and maintain proper oral hygiene. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, </s>
