Toothaches Shouldn’t Be Ignored
A common reason to look for a dentist is to address pain in one or more teeth. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For instance, a persistent tooth pain could be caused by dental caries, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened tooth structure due to teeth grinding. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you probably need a filling placed.
