What is causing my toothache?
The top four major causes of toothache include:
1. Toothache due to Tooth Decay
Occurs when the bacteria has reached the roots of the teeth resulting in an abscess inside your tooth and also in the bone. This is called a tooth decay and often this is the cause of a common toothache. If you are not able to see your dentist as soon as possible, you may use warm water with a teaspoon of salt and rinse your mouth to help disinfect the area.
2. Toothache due to Fractured Tooth or Filling
An exposed nerve can cause an abscess as well as excruciating dental pain leading to a root canal treatment. It is recommended to see a dentist as soon as possible in this case as you might need root canal to save your natural tooth. This situation could be caused by eating foods that are too hard for your teeth, which might then cause your teeth to fracture. This could involve severe pain.
