Is toothache bothering you? Best dental services near you

Hello, smilers! Suffering from a toothache or jaw pain? Here are a few reasons for your jaw pain:

1. Severely decayed tooth
2. Wisdom tooth pain
3. Tooth fracture
4. Dental hypersensitivity
5. Orthodontic treatment
6. Sinusitis

Severely decayed tooth

There are several common causes of toothache and the reason is multifactorial. Eating high sugar content and not maintaining proper oral hygiene is one of the top reasons for tooth cavities.

Treatment involves either getting a filling done or going for the root canal treatment if the cavity is too deep.

Wisdom tooth ache

One of the most common reasons for toothache other than dental cavities. The pain usually arises due to a lack of space for wisdom teeth in the dental arch.

Treatment usually involves the removal of wisdom teeth.

Tooth fracture

One of the less frequent causes of toothache. However, the tooth pain is unbearable and is considered a dental emergency.

The line of treatment usually depends on the severity of the tooth fracture and may range from treatment via root canal therapy to extraction.

Dental Hypersensitivity

This dental pain is triggered mostly by consuming cold water and sweets.

Its treatment depends upon the severity and ranges from the application of desensitizing agents to the application of lasers in severe cases. A root canal treatment may be indicated in cases of extreme dental hypersensitivity.

Orthodontic treatment-related toothache

This is a fairly common issue with patients getting their orthodontic treatment i.e. braces/aligners due to movement of teeth.

Treatment varies from taking NSAIDs/painkillers and usually subsides on its own in most cases. With the developing technology, opting for self-ligating braces helps in generating constant force during teeth movement thereby reducing the pain during orthodontic treatment.

Sinusitis

Maxillary sinusitis also known as odontogenic maxillary sinusitis is usually the inflammation of the sinus especially the maxillary sinus leading to pain in the back teeth of the upper jaw.

Careful examination and taking a brief case history help in properly distinguishing sinusitis from dental pain.
