Do you experience discomfort when enjoying your favourite ice cream or wince in pain when sipping hot coffee or tea? Dental pain and sensitivity are common issues that shouldn’t be ignored. Dr Amrita Sachdeva (Dentist) and our experienced team at 32 Dental Lane provide comprehensive care for all types of oral discomfort.
Understanding Your Symptoms
Toothache/Tooth Pain can range from mild discomfort to severe throbbing that disrupts your daily activities. This often indicates decay has reached the inner pulp where nerves are found.
Sensitive Teeth that react to hot, cold, or sweet stimuli typically suggest worn enamel, exposed roots, or the development of cavities.
Pain When Biting or Chewing might point to a cracked tooth, loose filling, or an infection at the tooth’s root.
Jaw Pain or Clicking Jaw could be related to TMJ disorders, which affect the joint connecting your jawbone to your skull.
Gum Pain or Swelling often indicates gum disease or an infection that requires prompt attention.
Pain After Dental Work is sometimes normal but should subside within days. If you experience persistent pain, it’s a good idea to come in for an assessment.
When Should You Seek Care?
While occasional mild sensitivity might improve with over-the-counter remedies, here are some symptoms that warrant immediate attention:
- Severe pain lasting more than two days
- Swelling in your face or gums
- Fever accompanying dental pain
- A broken or knocked-out tooth
- Difficulty breathing or swallowing
