How can Plantation Dental Associates help you with your toothache?

There are many issues that can cause a painful toothache. Call our office right away and we will do our best to see you as soon as possible, even the same day! When you arrive you will check in with our friendly receptionist. Then your dentist will perform a focused examination of the impacted tooth or area of your mouth. We will take a necessary, low-radiation x-ray of the area in order to diagnose the issue. After the examination our doctor will discuss a treatment plan with you to determine the best course of action to relieve you of your pain.

What is a toothache?

A toothache is defined as pain in or around a tooth.  The symptoms of a toothache can be sharp, throbbing or constant pain in or around the tooth.  You can experience swelling or bleeding of the gum tissue. You may experience a fever or nausea and even have a foul taste in your mouth.

Toothaches have a number of causes, such as:

  • Tooth decay
  • An abscessed tooth
  • A tooth break, chip or fracture
  • Bruxism or grinding teeth
  • Infected gums and/or gingivitis
  • A filling that has become damaged or loose over time

Your dentist will determine the best cause of action to relieve you of your toothache.  You may need a root canal or TMJ treatment (if you are grinding your teeth). Please watch our short videos below to learn more about these particular issues.
