You get pain in your mouth for a variety of reasons. Toothaches tend to come from something happening in your teeth or gums.
An injury to your jaw
Sinus infection
Tooth decay
A filling falling out
Infected tooth
Food or something else wedged between your teeth
Wisdom teeth crowning through your gums or pressing against the surrounding teeth
Gum disease, also known as Gingivitis or periodontal disease
Teeth grinding
Here are some ways that you can stop or at least ease off your pain:
Take Some Over-the-Counter Medication – Meds such as Ibuprofen (or related Advil and Motrin), acetaminophen (Tylenol), or aspirin are all good at relieving pain you may have from a toothache. Numbing gels can help, but make sure not to use products with benzocaine for young children.Elevate Your Head – Elevation helps to support an injured area. Keeping your head up will stop your blood from rushing to and staying in your head. The more blood pools in an area of your body, the more intense the pain will be.Watch What you Eat – Mouthwash, especially mouthwash with alcohol, can disinfect your teeth and mouth and even numb it a bit.Ice the Painful Area – Ice is a great tool in dampening pain and reducing inflammation. Give it a try and alternate between having an ice pack on for 10-20 minutes, then keeping it off for that amount of time.
Right away! Especially if you experience the following:
Severe pain
A toothache that lasts more than two days
You get a fever, headache, or more pain when you open your mouth
Breathing or swallowing becomes difficult
If your dentist tells you that you have a cavity forming, there are ways to stop early-stage tooth decay from progressing into a full-blown cavity. The process known as remineralization can occur, which can reverse tooth decay.
Remineralization can correct damage to a tooth. When a cavity begins to form, the enamel or dentin starts to lose valuable minerals that protect the tooth. You can help to put these valuable materials back into the tooth by remineralizing it. The tooth will start to strengthen itself and repair the decay to the point where a cavity is no longer forming.
While remineralization can reverse some damage to the surface of a tooth and prevent some cavities, it won’t work for all situations. If the damage to the enamel or dentin is too severe, the process will be ineffective, and the cavity will need to be treated by your dentist.
Cavity might as well be a four letter word.
Cavities have been a bad word for as long as they have had a name. It is no secret that the very thought of one may make your teeth clench in opposition to treatment.
The majority of people are familiar with cavities and know the treatment process, including regular cleaning exams. But most people don’t know the process of what happens to a tooth if it’s left untreated.
We hope that by telling you what happens with a bad cavity will lead you to making proper oral hygiene a part of your daily routine. Here’s a brief summary of what to expect if a cavity goes untreated.
Cavities don’t just go away on their own. If you ignore a cavity, it will continue to grow in size. One bad cavity could lead to a second cavity before long. Decay of the tooth will widen and deepen; this will make you more prone to brittle teeth leaving them to the possibility of cracking and breaking.
Taking it a step further, if cavities go untreated the decay will eventually reach your nerves. This can be severely painful because nerves become exposed to the air as a cavity progresses. Nerve pain can be an ongoing and excruciating ordeal as the sensitivity within the tooth continues to be compromised. By this time, the tooth will either need a root canal or to be extracted.
Infection in the mouth and jaw area is of greatest concern even above the pain you may experience. Infection can lead to increased pain, swelling, and other health concerns. You’ll need an antibiotic to help fight the infection along with treatment of the tooth to take care of the cavity in whatever way the dentist feels is best.
As you can see, letting a cavity progress certainly has a snowball effect. Treatment is very easy when cavities begin but can be much more involved if you ignore them. If you suspect that you have a cavity, you should seek immediate treatment from your dentist.
A tooth cavity can cause a variety of complications if it’s left untreated. These include:
ongoing tooth pain
a tooth abscess, which can become infected and trigger life-threatening complications, like an infection that enters the bloodstream or sepsis
the development of pus around the infected tooth
an increased risk for breaking or chipping a tooth
difficulty chewing food
You may cause damage to your tooth that can’t be reversed if you put off seeing a dentist. At this point, the only way to fix the cavity is for your dentist to remove the tooth and replace it with an implant or bridge.
You can do your part in helping to protect your teeth from tooth decay by following a few simple guidelines:
Gently brush your teeth at least twice a day for a full two minutes with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste.
Floss once a day.
Incorporate a fluoride mouthwash into your oral care routine.
Avoid sugary and starchy foods, and avoid frequent snacking.
Having regular teeth cleanings and exams every six months is another necessary step in eliminating cavity-causing plaque and tartar. During these exams, your dentist will be able to identify any early signs of tooth decay and give you the tools and knowledge to combat cavities.
