Toothache

Pain or discomfort felt in or around a tooth is known as a toothache. Tooth decay, cavities, gum disease, tooth infections, broken teeth, and other dental ailments are common culprits. A toothache's pain can be acute, throbbing, or agonizing, and it can range from mild and intermittent to severe and chronic.
- Hot or cold drinks and foods, sugary foods, and even the pressure exerted to a tooth while chewing can all cause pain. If there is an infection present, you may also experience swelling, redness, and fever in addition to the pain in your tooth.
If you get a toothache, you should see a dentist right away so they can diagnose and treat the problem. It's important to see a dentist as soon as possible if you're experiencing tooth pain; otherwise, the situation could worsen. Depending on the core of the problem, a toothache can be treated with a variety of dental procedures, including fillings, root canal therapy, extraction, and more.
