Floppy Tesouro Begins Staged Treatment After Acute Pulpitis Diagnosis

The model says a dental procedure to open then clean the tooth should ease severe facial pain over time.

Overview

  • Tesouro disclosed on Instagram that dentists started treatment by opening and cleaning the affected area after diagnosing acute pulpitis.
  • She said she feared being re-anesthetized and described limited mouth opening during the procedure due to trismus linked to a prior dental anesthesia.
  • Her care team plans to proceed in stages, and she reported numbness and swelling now with pain expected to lessen gradually.
  • She described the emotional toll and said she cried after leaving the clinic, then canceled a social event to rest and spend time with her daughter.
  • Tesouro has chronic trigeminal neuralgia and reported adverse reactions to its medications, which she believes contributed to the dental inflammation.
