A Toothache Needs Attention
One of the most common reasons to search for a dentist is to address a toothache. While toothaches and sensitivity could occur for multiple reasons, including sinus problems, one that persists for more than a day could mean trouble. For example, a persistent toothache could be caused by dental caries, the early stages of a dental abscess, or as a result of weakened enamel due to teeth grinding while asleep. When you have a toothache that lingers, you most likely need a filling placed.
