Toothache: What causes it, how to calm it down, and how to prevent it from coming back
The toothache does not warn.
It arrives suddenly, intensely, and changes everything: eating, sleeping or concentrating becomes almost impossible.
In Clínica10, the best dental clinic in Castalla, we know it well. We have been helping our patients from Ibi, Onil, Tibi, Alicante and Castalla to solve this root problem.
The most common cause of toothache is usually a tooth decay that has reached the nerve of the tooth. But it can also be due to a infection, a poorly positioned wisdom tooth, or an inflamed gum. Therefore, the first step is always clear: you have to come to the dentist.
In our Dental Clinic at Castalla, we diagnose quickly and accurately to apply the right treatment, which can range from a simple filling, to a root canal or the removal of a damaged tooth. Each case is different, and we treat it as such.
But beyond calming the pain, the important thing is prevent that it reappears. How? With three keys that do not fail:
-
Daily hygiene: brushing three times a day, flossing and rinsing. It sounds basic, but many neglect it.
-
Regular check-ups: What is detected in time, is easy to fix. At Clínica10 we recommend at least one check-up per year.
-
Preventive treatments: Professional cleanings, sealants or fluoride treatments can make a difference, especially in patients with a tendency to form tooth decay.
And if you have already lost a tooth to decay or infection, remember that we also work with dental implants in Castalla, a safe and lasting solution to recover your smile and chewing.
Toothache can’t stand it, it’s fixed!
And the sooner you do it, the easier the treatment will be. At Clínica10, your dentist at Castalla, we take care of the oral health of more than 7,000 patients with close, professional treatment and without waiting or delay.
Do not wait for the toothache to appear.
