Toothaches Need Attention
One of the most common reasons to look for a dentist is to address pain in one or more teeth. While temporary aches could occur for a number of reasons, including sinus concerns, one that persists for more than a day could be a sign of a deeper problem. For instance, a persistent toothache could be caused by dental caries, the early stages of a dental infection, or as a result of weakened tooth structure due to teeth grinding while asleep. When you have an aching tooth that does not subside, you most likely need a filling placed.
