Frequently Asked Questions

Waking up in the middle of the night with a toothache is a horrible experience, and it’s best not to ignore your symptoms. Tooth pain can be caused by tooth decay, gum disease, bruxism and more.

Let’s take a look at the most common reasons a tooth might be painful.

What Causes Tooth Pain?

Tooth pain derives from numerous sources, including the following:

  • Decay — When you get a cavity, your tooth’s inner dentin layer is exposed, which can lead to pain when you bite down or drink hot or cold beverages.
  • Gum disease — Swollen, infected gum tissue can expose your tooth’s roots and nerve endings, causing pain.
  • Cracked or broken teeth — When you break your tooth, you may expose the nerves, and this can be painful.
  • Bruxism — If you grind your teeth, it places undue pressure on them. This can be painful.
  • Impacted wisdom teeth — When there isn’t enough room for your wisdom teeth to erupt in the back of your mouth, it causes pain and discomfort.

Common Dental Emergencies We Treat in Warners Bay

Common dental emergencies we treat at SmilesHQ include:

  • Severe toothaches
  • Chipped or broken teeth
  • Lost fillings or crowns
  • Abscesses or infections 
  • Knocked-out or partially dislodged teeth

Seeking prompt treatment is crucial for immediate comfort and well-being and preventing problems from worsening. For example, an untreated toothache can quickly progress from a minor cavity to a major issue that could require more complex treatment to resolve. Addressing these issues sooner rather than later can prevent complications like advanced decay, gum disease and systemic infections.
