Expert Care for Patients with Toothache
A toothache can be more than just an inconvenience—it’s often a sign of an underlying dental issue that needs immediate attention. At Avenue Dental, we provide expert care for patients experiencing toothaches, ensuring fast relief and effective treatment. With practices across the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, and Adelaide, our skilled team is here to help you address the pain and restore your oral health.
Common Causes of Toothaches
Toothaches can be caused by a variety of issues, including:
- Cavities: Decay that has reached the sensitive inner layers of the tooth.
- Gum Disease: Infections or inflammation in the gums can lead to referred pain.
- Tooth Sensitivity: Worn enamel or exposed roots can cause discomfort when eating or drinking.
- Dental Abscess: A pocket of infection at the root of a tooth can result in severe pain and swelling.
- Cracked or Damaged Teeth: Fractures or chips can expose the tooth’s nerve, leading to pain.
- Teeth Grinding (Bruxism): Chronic grinding can wear down teeth and cause jaw pain.
Whatever the cause, a persistent toothache should always be assessed by a dentist to prevent the problem from worsening.
