Toothache

Tooth pain can be a very challenging and unfortunate event.
To move forward to comfort and health we must evaluate the symptoms associated with the toothache.

1. Is your tooth sensitive to hot or cold temperatures (liquids)?

this is a symptom that the outer shell of the tooth (enamel) has been breached.

If treated quickly the symptoms may reverse themselves. Typical treatment options

would be a tooth-colored dental filling.

2. How long does the discomfort last?

If the discomfort quickly goes away than simple treatment options are available.

Options of densensitizing agents like Sensodyne, fluoride applications, or silver

diamide to flowable dental fillings, and more advanced dental coverings like dental

crowns

3. Is the pain a Dull Ache or a Sharp deep pain?

Dull ache are similiar to muscle aches and pains. These symptoms are a product of

bruising the teeth through clenching and grinding, trauma from a hard food source.

Time and a soft diet are the first line of defense while fitting a mouth guard for the

heavy grinding can be an option.

Sharp pain that goes away quickly is most often associated with a fractured tooth

that flexes the dental nerve that elicits the quick sharp pain. These symptoms

should be addressed soon and usually result in a full coverage dental crown to

prevent further damage and more treatment needs.

4. Did the pain wake you up at night and is the tooth throbbing?

This indicates the the damage to the tooth is deeper and involves the nerve

and the blood vessels of the tooth. Help is needed immediately due to the pain

worsening or the eventual problem of a serious infection. Treatment options are

usually associated with removal of the involved nerves by doing a routine

root canal therapy by an endodontist. This can create fear in the hearts of many,

but that is associated only with the initial pain leading to the root canal treatment.

The truth is that root canal therapy can be comfortable and expedient.
