Oh My Goodness! I remember years ago (a million maybe) when I would go to my NJ dentist as an emergency visit with a tooth ache and swear he had to do X-rays because surely I needed a root canal and he would tell me to take an antihistamines because probably, no doubt, it was a sinus allergy symptom. Sure enough. I would take an antihistamine and pain would be gone. It happened a couple of times after that and he would get on the phone and ask me if I’d taken an anti-histamine. I would do so and no dentist visit was needed. He was the one that was always instructing me on the dangers of eating all sorts of stuff and that we needed to floss and brush or it would just stick to our teeth. Of course, he was right. He retired more years than I can remember. One of the few that was always straight with me and my son and didn’t want to make hygienist appointments when a bit of home care would take care of the issues.
