Importance of Seeking Immediate Dental Care
Experiencing tooth pain? Seeking immediate dental care is very important for two primary reasons: to alleviate and manage your tooth pain quickly and to uncover the cause of the problem.
If your severe tooth pain is the result of a filling that fell out, a piece of your tooth may have broken off with it. Tooth sensitivity may be caused by an exposed root. In this case, the underlying nerve endings must be protected to avoid further damage. If not, you may need root canal treatment to correct the problem. The best way to safeguard your teeth is to visit a dental care professional immediately, or as soon as possible. The right caregiver will alleviate tooth pain and dress any open wounds and discuss available treatment options.
Managing Severe Tooth Pain
To manage severe tooth pain before you can visit your dentist or seek other assistance, take aspirin, acetaminophen or ibuprofen temporarily, to reduce tooth pain and bring down inflammation. You can also try placing a couple of drops of clove oil on a cotton ball and apply it to the infected tooth, rinsing with warm water and salt, or apply a bag of ice to the cheek next to the painful tooth. It is also an option to visit the dental section of a local pharmacy to find tooth pain aids.
