TOOTHACHE

Are you suffering from Toothache?

Symptoms of Toothaches

Pain in your tooth and mouth is the primary symptom of a toothache, but the type of pain can vary and present itself in multiple ways:

  • Sharp, throbbing, or constant pain
  • Tooth pain that only occurs when pressure is applied
  • Swelling, painful gums
  • Bad taste in the mouth (from an infection in a tooth)
  • Fever or headache

Causes of Toothaches

Generally, tooth pain is a result of inflammation of the soft, center part of the tooth. This pain can have several different causes:

  • Cavities (tooth decay)
  • Infection at the root of the tooth
  • Chipped or broken teeth
  • Damaged fillings
  • Repetitive motions (chewing or grinding)
  • Infected gums

Toothache Triggers

Some behaviors or foods can start your toothache, or even make it worse. They are known as “triggers” and include:

  • Cold drinks or food
  • Sweet foods
  • Biting down on anything
  • Putting other pressure on the tooth
