Severe Toothache

Toothache Emergency in Nashville

An emergency toothache visit is prompted by sudden, severe dental pain. Our professional dental staff at Dental Faith will assess the patient’s condition and tooth sensitivity, taking Digital Dental X-rays to identify the causes. The goal is to alleviate pain, address the underlying issue, and provide guidance for post-treatment care to ensure oral health and comfort.

Treatment may involve addressing issues like dental cavities, infection, swelling, or gum disease. Relief is provided through pain management, which may include dental procedures, medications, or a combination of both.

FAQs

What can I do if my tooth pain is unbearable?

If your tooth pain is unbearable, try home remedies like rinsing with warm salt water, applying a cold compress, or taking over-the-counter pain relievers. If pain persists, see a dentist immediately for treatment.

How to stop tooth nerve pain?

To relieve nerve pain, avoid hot or cold foods, use desensitizing toothpaste, and gently massage your gums. A dentist may recommend fillings, root canals, or other treatments depending on the cause.

What is the best medicine for a toothache?

Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help. In cases of infection, a dentist may prescribe antibiotics to reduce inflammation and pain.

How long will a toothache last before the nerve dies?

A toothache can last for days or weeks before the nerve dies. The duration depends on the symptoms and severity of the decay or damage. Seeking prompt dental care can help prevent further complications.
