Toothaches Need Attention
One of the most common reasons to seek dental care is pain in one or more teeth. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for many different reasons, including sinus congestion, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For instance, a lingering tooth pain could be caused by tooth decay, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened tooth structure due to teeth grinding while asleep. When you have an aching tooth, you most likely need a dentist. Doctors Network can help you find a dentist in the Mekoryuk, AK community who takes Aetna!
When the dentist examines your teeth, imaging technology is used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. From there, a dental restoration is chosen. For kids and adults alike, a dental filling made from a metal-free material could bring relief. A dental crown could also be used to address major cavities. When possible, the dentist will take steps to use more lifelike options, so they ensure an attractive smile.
