What Is Your Toothache Telling You? | The Dacula Dentist

There’s not many things in life worse than a bad toothache. But the constant nagging pain is more than just an annoyance. Toothaches or tooth pain is caused when the nerve to a tooth becomes irritated. Toothaches are usually a sign of a more serious dental or medical issue and shouldn’t be ignored.


Common causes of toothaches are tooth decay, a cracked tooth, gum disease or an exposed root. Other causes may not even originate in the mouth at all, including heart disease or sinus problems. Simple activities like drinking or chewing may seriously aggravate a toothache. Even if you are able to treat your toothache effectively with over the counter pain medication, do not ignore the pain. The earlier you treat your toothache, the more likely you are to treat them with minimal cost and invasion. Through dental exams and x-rays, your dentist can help you determine the cause of your toothache and what the best treatment is.
