Toothaches Need Attention
One of the most common reasons to search for a dentist is to address pain in one or more teeth. While sudden discomfort could occur for multiple reasons, including sinus concerns or changes in elevation, 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 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 tooth-filling. Doctors Network can help locate dental care in the Manley Hot Springs, AK community who takes Blue Cross Blue Shield!
When the dentist examines your teeth, imaging technology is used to assess the cause and extent of the cavity. From there, the right treatment is chosen. For children and adults alike, a tooth-filling made from biocompatible material could bring relief. A crown could also be used to treat more severe cases. When possible, the dentist will take steps to utilize more lifelike options, so they offer a natural appearance.
