My #2 is giving me some discomfort, and I've just found out that its
roots extend into a sinus cavity.  I suspect that there is a minor
infection in the sinus, and it is draining into my throat.  I think
this is the reason I've been feeling sick with a ringing in my ears
for the last six weeks.  Any comments on this would be most welcome.
What is the remidy for this?

Thanks in advance.

Are there other teeth around this one or is it the only back tooth in
the area? Does it hurt when you bite down on it? If you run down the
stairs fast, does it make that tooth hurt? You can't go far wrong by
taking some antiinflammatory meds like ibuprofen...

Either the problem is your sinus or the tooth or both. It is normal that
the roots extend into the sinus cavity. There's often not alot of bone
in the area, and the second molar has long roots.

But the twain shall never meet except in the pathologic condition.

Some dentists are afraid to extract any tooth.  Maybe yours is difficult.
Can't tell over the internet.  You *probably* need that or a root canal.
