Tooth pain is a very common complaint in most dental offices. Many patients automatically assume that tooth pain is indicative of dental cavities or perhaps tooth decay. However, the truth is that there are an incredible number of reasons why your tooth may ache – some of which are entirely avoidable!
At Meadows Family Dentistry, it’s important to us that our patients are aware of the potential dental problems they face, and how to avoid these problems. Below are a few of the common reasons for a toothache, and why they occur:
As always, the best way to make sure you don’t experience any of the painful dental issues listed above is to maintain good oral hygiene habits. The three main points of healthy teeth are to brush twice a day, floss daily, and visit the dentist every 6 months for a dental cleaning and exam.
If you have any of the above symptoms or an unexplained toothache, please contact Meadows Family Dentistry immediately for an emergency appointment. Our general dentistry office is located in Castle Rock, CO.
