DO YOU HAVE A TOOTH THAT HURTS WHEN YOU CHEW OR WHEN YOU EAT SOMETHING TOO HOT OR TOO COLD? Here at Dental Care Today, PC we understand that toothaches are no fun.
Sometimes a simple toothache may be caused by a number of minor factors—including sensitivity. But if you’re unsure, or if the pain continues, it’s probably a good idea to visit with us. We have a great deal of experience treating toothaches. Come in and see Dr. Behner or a member of our team as soon as possible so the problem doesn’t get any worse.
Toothaches are often caused by dental cavities, a cracked tooth, an exposed root, or even gum disease. However, issues with the jaw-joint can also cause toothaches. Through a simple x-ray procedure, Dr. Behner can help determine the cause so that the issue can be treated.
As temporary relief for a toothache before you are able to visit our office, rinse your tooth with warm water and make sure that nothing is lodged between teeth. Apply an ice pack and/or take an over-the-counter pain reliever to reduce swelling.
Don’t let a toothache bother you any longer—come see us! You have the decision-making power to take control of your lifelong oral health each day.
Feel free to learn more about our practice on our website or our Facebook Page. We look forward to connecting with you there!
