Oral pain caused by a toothache is the symptom of an underlying oral health issue. When you have a toothache, it’s a sign that something is not right. Discovering the root cause as soon as possible is important and it is something only a professional dentist like ours can do. Some possible causes of oral pain are minor and might not require as much as other issues that are much more serious. Some examples of minor issues are: a small cavity, minor tooth decay, and gingivitis or early gum disease. Typically, these can be treated easily. However, if they are not treated in a timely manner, they could lead to more serious oral health problems. Some serious problems that can cause toothaches include but aren’t limited to: advanced periodontal disease, which can cause tooth loss. It can also lead to an abscess, which, if not treated promptly enough, can spread quickly and lead to a life-threatening condition called sepsis. Since minor problems can turn into serious ones rather quickly, you should contact the dental office as soon as you notice any symptoms.
