Are you feeling pain or discomfort when you eat? Do cold drinks cause a stinging sensation in your mouth? Is there a dull, aching feeling in your tooth or jaw?
While toothaches happen all the time, it’s important to speak with a dentist to make sure that the cause of your pain is not an emergency that could develop into something worse if not treated right away.
Here are some common causes:
• Something stuck in your gums or between your teeth
• Cavity
• Chip or crack
• Clenching or grinding
• A dental abscess
• Tooth decay
• Gum infection
• A tooth growing through the gumline (often your wisdom teeth)
If you have a toothache, call us to schedule an appointment. We’ll assess your current condition, help determine what is causing your pain, and work with you to find the best treatment option for your unique situation. Our dental office is growing and accepting new patients and emergencies.
