Tooth Pain Causes and Options for Treatment


Something you have to know about tooth pain

A toothache may be a painful and unpleasant experience, characterized as any discomfort, soreness, or ache in or around a tooth. In addition to sharp or dull pain, when chewing or biting, the tooth can be temperature sensitive or painful. Your dentist will suggest some possible diagnoses based on your medical history, dental report, and occasionally an imaging examination, usually an X-ray, in order to get to the bottom of your tooth pain.

Causes

Let's look separately at each of these potential symptoms.

Disease of Gum

Infection of the gums characterizes gum disease. More specifically, the gums become inflamed and become hot, red, and swollen with gingivitis. Periodontitis develops when an infection occurs in the gums. Eventually, the infection causes bone loss and weakening of the gums if left untreated. Gums are removed from the teeth, creating pockets for more bacteria to fill. Tooth roots are then exposed to plaque and become vulnerable to cold, contact, and chewing and sensitive to decay.

Teeth Sensitive

Sometimes, when your teeth or a single tooth are exposed to cold air, liquids, and some foods, you can feel discomfort. This indicates that a sensitivity linked to one or more sensations, such as cold temperatures, may have formed in your teeth.
Sensitivity of the teeth develops from exposed dentin in the tissue below both the enamel and the cementum.

Decay of Tooth

Tooth decay refers to the erosion and development of cavities on the tooth's outer surface. It feeds on sugars and starches from food particles in your mouth as plaque forms a sticky layer of bacteria on the tooth enamel. This produces an acid that, creating poor areas and gaps, eats away at the enamel. The enamel breaks down over time, and a cavity forms.
Although cavities are normally painless, as the decay progresses inward into the middle layer of the tooth, symptoms such as temperature sensitivity and touch may be created.

Tooth Cracked

From damage to the mouth, a broken or damaged tooth may happen, such as when an athlete receives a blow to the face. Furthermore, often the force of biting down on a hard object like ice or a popcorn kernel will cause a tooth to crack. Extreme bruxism can harm and break teeth as well.
When biting or chewing, signs of a broken tooth can include a sharp pain. You may also be susceptible to hot and cold temperatures or sweet and sour foods because of your broken tooth.
Keep in mind, there are various types of cracks in teeth and knowing the type of crack you have will effectively guide your treatment plan.

Tooth Pulp Inflammation

Pulpitis occurs when tooth decay stretches deep into the pulp of the tooth. This implies that the tissue, which is rich in blood vessels and nerves, becomes inflamed and irritated in the center of the tooth. This inflammation causes the building of pressure inside the tooth and then inside the surrounding tissues.
Other conditions that may cause pulpitis, in addition to tooth decay, include:
  • Traumatism to a tooth
  • A tooth which needs various invasive processes
An excellent sensitivity to different stimuli, often temperature, is the key sign of pulpitis. Two forms of pulpitis, reversible pulpitis and irreversible pulpitis, are essential to know.
If the pulpitis is reversible, within a few seconds after the stimuli are withdrawn, the discomfort or sensitivity ceases. If the pulpitis is permanent, after the stimulation is taken away, the pain can continue for minutes.

If to see a Doctor

If you haven't had a tooth cleaning in the last year, make sure you schedule a dentist appointment. Normal, skilled dental cleaning will optimize the health of your teeth.
Furthermore, if you experience any tooth pain, dental sensitivity, constant bad breath, loosening teeth, expanding gaps between your teeth, or find your gums are bleeding, swollen, or receding, make an appointment with your dentist.

KIDS' DENTAL HYGIENE

You are most concerned about our child's well-being, and oral hygiene is a crucial element of their general health. You may set your child on the right path for a lifetime of good oral hygiene by taking care of his or her teeth and gums. Oral Hygiene for Children Babies are born with all of their teeth, which are buried underneath the gums and are not visible. Around the age of six months, baby teeth begin to burst through the gums, but it is critical to begin proper oral hygiene for infants even before the first tooth appears. Healthy gums lead to healthy teeth. After feeding, wipe your baby's gums with a soft washcloth. This aids in the removal of microorganisms that might lead to tooth decay. Brush teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste in a smear the size of a grain of rice, using a soft-bristle toothbrush, once they start to erupt. To avoid infant bottle teeth decay, put the bottle aside when your child has finished drinking. When newborns consume milk, formula, or j...
