When Should You See a Dentist for a Toothache?
If you're experiencing tooth pain and wondering whether to see a dentist, the answer is simple: don’t wait. Tooth pain is your body’s way of signaling that something is wrong, and delaying treatment can lead to more severe problems and higher costs in the long run.
Why You Shouldn't Ignore Tooth Pain
Toothaches can result from a variety of issues, including:
Cavities — Decay can reach the nerve, causing intense discomfort.
Infections — An untreated infection can spread and lead to more serious complications.
Gum Disease — Inflammation and infection in the gums can worsen if ignored.
Cracked or Broken Teeth — Even minor cracks can expose sensitive areas and lead to pain. Ignoring these signs allows the underlying problem to progress, potentially requiring more extensive and costly treatments. By seeking dental care promptly, you can often resolve the issue early and avoid larger concerns down the road.
