Causes of Toothache

Toothache is usually caused by inflammation of the pulp. Nerve endings are present in the pulp that send signals of pain to the brain. Dental cavities, trauma, and gum infections are the three main causes of pulpitis or pulp inflammation. Common toothache causes include:

Tooth Decay

Acids in the mouth produced by bacteria cause tooth decay. Untreated tooth decay can damage enamel, dentine, and then pulp. Bacteria damaging the pulp cause toothache in patients.

Gum Disease

Poor oral hygiene leads to plaque buildup and bacterial growth resulting in inflamed gums. Advanced gum diseases lead to wearing of gums and exposure of tooth roots. Exposed tooth roots cause sensitivity and pain in teeth.

Abscess

An abscess is a localized pocket of pus at the root of a tooth. Abscesses usually occur because of trauma or dental decay. This abscess causes pain in teeth and swelling in gum tissues.

Symptoms of Toothache

Toothache symptoms vary as per the intensity of pain. Toothache can last from 15 seconds to several minutes even after removal of stimuli. Sometimes patients may also experience toothache symptoms because of jaw pain. Some common toothache symptoms are:

• Sharp or throbbing pain
• Bleeding from gums
• Fever
• Sensitivity
• Swollen gums

Common Home Remedies

Home remedies relieve toothache symptoms for a short time till you schedule an appointment for toothache at the dental clinic. Some of the effective toothache remedies include:

1. Saltwater Rinse

Lukewarm saltwater rinse can relieve pain symptoms as salt contains disinfecting properties. Saltwater rinse reduces inflammation and removes bacteria from the mouth.

2. Clove Oil

Pour a few drops of clove oil on cotton and place it on the tooth causing pain. Clove contains eugenol (a natural anesthetic) that numbs the area and reduces pain symptoms.

3. Ice Packs

Cold compression or ice packs can shrink the blood vessels resulting in low blood flow. This helps to reduce pain and inflammation in the affected area.

Professional Treatments in Dubai

There are different professional treatments in Dubai to relieve pain. Dental treatments to manage tooth pain depend on the cause and severity of toothache.

Dental Fillings

Dental fillings are recommended in case of minor tooth cavities. The dentist removes the damaged or decayed part of the tooth and replaces it with filling material. Dental filling saves the tooth from further damage.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns are offered in case of a chipped or injured crown part of the tooth. The dentist also recommends dental crowns to secure larger dental fillings. Dental crowns are also offered in tooth erosion.

Root Canal Treatment

The dentist performs root canal treatment when bacteria invade the pulp of the tooth. Inflammation of tooth pulp makes pain symptoms worse. RCT removes infected pulp and fills roots with specialized filling material. Dental crowns are placed after RCT to strengthen the tooth.

Dental Extractions

Dental extractions are done when there is no other option to save the tooth and a patient has a severe dental infection. The dentist first prescribes medications to control the infection then extraction is performed.

Emergency Care Options

NSAIDs (Ibuprofen) or acetaminophen are the two commonly used and effective over-the-counter pain relievers. These medicines can be used for emergency toothache relief till the time you can book an appointment with the dentist.
