There are many reasons toothaches occur such as gum disease, a progressed infection, injuries to the mouth, impacted or erupting wisdom teeth, and failing dental appliances like broken fillings.
First, we will conduct an in-depth analysis, including x-rays of the affected tooth to find the culprit for your discomfort.
How treatment progresses will depend on the results of the examination and the severity of the issue. Tooth decay in its primary stages will be cleared and replaced with a filling. More developed cases will require an on the spot root canal procedure, course of antibiotics, or extraction.
Many patients will try to ignore the initial warning signs of a toothache and hope that it goes away on its own. Unfortunately, in many cases, the symptoms only get worse. That’s why you should contact our emergency dentists on 01622 291 999 to get the issue addressed immediately.
