Toothaches: Quit Blaming Cavities Every Time!

Toothaches not always arise from cavities. Even though a cavity is a common culprit for oral pain, there are myriad factors that could result in causing pain. Such pain is felt in areas around the tooth and guessing for cavities causing the same is no good help.       

A toothache is the worst form of pain we can experience. It could be the indication of a severe oral health problem. Among all the possible causes of a toothache, decay, inflammation, sensitivity and gum disease are the most common.   
  
A toothache is a severely painful and unpleasant experience. To prevent frequent or sudden pain in teeth, understanding and eliminating the possible culprits for the same is imperative.

The following are the reasons other than cavities because of which sudden or frequent pain arises in our teeth -   

§  Gum Disease   
   
Gums support and nourish teeth and play a vital role in dental development. Any infection or inflammation that arises in the gums could lead to severe pain. The infection causes decay of the gum and bone loss which exposes the tooth roots to plaque. This is what causes pain. 

§  Tooth Sensitivity  
    
Sensitive teeth are an indication of cavities or exposed dentin. Discomfort from sudden exposure to cold air, certain foods and liquids are what characterizes sensitive teeth.     
  
When the layers of dentin tissue are exposed due to erosion of enamel and cementum, sensitivity occurs and leads to severe pain by causing cavities.  

§  Tooth Trauma  

Injury to the tooth can result in cracks, breaking or chipping. A cracked or fractured tooth causes sharp pain and also leads to sensitivity which altogether leads to a very unpleasant experience and persistent pain. 
        
A 24-hour emergency a dentist can resolve and treat all such dental trauma conditions and heal away all tooth fractures.
   
§  Dental Abscess 
       
If cavities or pulpitis is left untreated, it might gradually develop a dental abscess. A build-up of bacteria causes infection and inflammation which lead to pain. Thus proper care and attention is a must to ensure every dental condition is timely treated so as to prevent future troubles. 

§  Grinding Teeth  
   
Grinding Teeth or Bruxism as it is commonly referred to is the clenching and grinding action of teeth that occurs involuntarily mostly during sleep. Over time it damages enamel and thus leads to sensitivity and as a result tooth pain.
