What Are Cavities and Why Do They Occur?
Common Causes of Toothache
A toothache is usually a sign that something is wrong with a tooth or the surrounding gums. Some common causes of toothache include:
Tooth Decay (Cavities): Cavities are tiny holes in a tooth caused by decay, and they expose sensitive nerve endings, often leading to constant or throbbing pain.
Gum Disease: Infections of the gums (gingivitis or periodontitis) can cause dull aching or sharp tooth pain, especially if the gums are swollen or receding.
Dental Abscess: An abscess is a pocket of infection at the tooth root or in the gums, causing severe, throbbing pain that can radiate to the jaw and ear.
Cracked or Damaged Tooth: A crack, fracture, or deep chip in a tooth can result in pain when biting down or when the tooth is exposed to hot or cold temperatures.
Impacted Wisdom Tooth: A wisdom tooth that is coming in crooked or stuck (impacted) in the gum can press on other teeth or become infected, leading to jaw pain and toothache.
Understanding the cause of your toothache helps our dentists decide on the best approach to treat it. Whether it’s a simple cavity or a more complex dental infection, identifying the underlying cause is the first step toward effective relief.
Diagnosis and Tooth Pain Treatment at HealthHub
At HealthHub Clinics in Dubai, our dentists take tooth pain seriously. When you visit us with a toothache, we start with a thorough examination to pinpoint the exact cause of your discomfort. This may include a visual exam and digital X-rays to look for hidden issues such as cavities between teeth or infections at the tooth root. Once we’ve identified the problem, we will explain our findings to you and outline a personalized tooth pain treatment plan.
Comprehensive Treatment Plans: Our dental team is equipped to handle everything from minor toothaches to severe dental infections. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may involve:
Filling cavities to repair tooth decay and stop the pain.
Performing root canal therapy to treat an infected tooth and save it from extraction.
Prescribing antibiotics for any dental infections (such as an abscess) to eliminate bacteria.
Gentle tooth extractions when a tooth is beyond saving or a wisdom tooth is impacted and causing pain.
Treating gum disease with deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to alleviate gum-related toothache.
Providing crowns or onlays to fix cracked teeth and protect them from further damage.
Throughout your treatment, we also focus on immediate pain relief. Our dentists ensure you are as comfortable as possible during procedures, using safe numbing techniques and pain management methods. We don’t just treat the symptom; we address the root cause so that your relief is long-lasting.
