Edgewater Toothache
An
Edgewater toothache is something you most certainly do not want, but if it does develop, you need our emergency dentist for help. Don't settle for an office that doesn't take your need seriously enough to get you in quickly. Here at Jersey Dental Group, we're committed to alleviating your pain promptly, effectively, and safely.
Why do you have this pain in your tooth? On the most serious side, it could be an infection caused by a large cavity, deep filling, or a chip or crack that has allowed bacteria to infiltrate the pulp inside your tooth. IF this has happened, you will need root canal therapy. And you can expect it to be virtually pain-free; the result of dental advancements that have improved both techniques and equipment. A chipped or cracked tooth may cause an
Edgewater toothache, but without any damage to the pulp. The pain might be due to the nerve being exposed. In such cases, acting quickly will typically mean you only need a crown put on the tooth. You'll be measured for a permanent one, and our emergency dentist will fit you with a temporary substitute to keep it protected in the meantime. And if you're particularly fortunate, your
Edgewater toothache may only be a cavity that needs to be filled, or the result of an older filling that has come loose and fallen out. Compared to root canals and crowns, placing or replacing a filling is very simple. Those are all common reasons for a toothache, but sometimes it can be due to gum disease or a jaw problem such as TMJ disorder. If so, our emergency dentist will diagnose the situation and identify the proper course of treatment.
The first thing you should do when a toothache arises, even if it's not sever, is to call our office. Even mild pain could turn severe, so it is always better to treat it as an urgent matter.
