Tooth pain is stressful. At Dental Faith, we make it easier by acting fast and treating you with care from the moment you call.
We See Urgent Cases the Same Day – Tooth pain does not follow a schedule. We keep time open for same-day and same-week appointments so you are not waiting days to get help.

Modern Diagnostic Technology – We use up to date imaging to see decay, infection, and damage that is not visible to the naked eye. This leads to faster, more accurate treatment.
Honest Treatment Recommendations – We tell you what is actually causing the pain and what it takes to fix it. We do not recommend more treatment than you need.
Comfortable Care for Anxious Patients – Our bilingual team takes time with nervous patients. We explain what we are doing before we do it so nothing surprises you.

How It Works
The cost of treating a toothache depends on what is causing it and what type of treatment is needed. We go over all of this before any work begins.
HOW TO RELIEVE TOOTH PAIN AT HOME
What to Do While You Wait to See Us
Home remedies will not fix the problem, but they can make you more comfortable while you wait for your appointment.
Rinse your mouth gently with warm salt water. This helps reduce bacteria and can ease some of the inflammation around the tooth.
Apply a cold pack to the outside of your cheek in 10 minute intervals. This reduces swelling and numbs some of the pain. Do not put ice directly on the tooth.
Avoid chewing on the side where the pain is coming from. Stick to soft foods and avoid anything very hot, cold, sweet, or hard until you are seen.
Over the counter pain relievers like ibuprofen can help manage discomfort. Follow the dosage instructions on the label and do not place aspirin directly on the tooth or gum.
Keep your head elevated when resting. Lying flat can increase blood pressure in the area and make the pain feel worse.
These steps are temporary. They do not treat the underlying problem. Call us as soon as possible for a same-day appointment.

Common Questions
What is the fastest way to stop a toothache?
Rinsing with warm salt water, applying a cold pack to your cheek, and taking an over the counter pain reliever can help temporarily. These steps ease discomfort but do not fix the problem. Call us for a same-day appointment to treat the actual cause.
When should I see a dentist for tooth pain?
If the pain is severe, has lasted more than a day or two, or is accompanied by swelling, fever, or a bad taste in your mouth, call us right away. Those are signs of infection that need professional treatment immediately.
What will an emergency dentist do for a toothache?
We start by taking digital X-rays to find the source of the pain. Then we numb the area and treat the cause, whether that is a filling, root canal, or extraction. We walk you through everything before we begin so you know exactly what to expect.
How much does toothache treatment cost in Nashville?
Cost depends on what is causing the pain. A filling costs far less than a root canal. We give you a clear estimate before any treatment starts. Most insurance plans cover at least part of the cost and financing is available.
Can a toothache go away on its own?
Sometimes the pain fades, but the problem does not. Decay and infection do not heal without treatment. A tooth that stops hurting may mean the nerve has died, which is actually a sign the situation has gotten more serious, not better.
Is tooth pain always a dental emergency?
Not always. Mild sensitivity to temperature may not need same-day care. But severe pain, swelling, fever, or difficulty swallowing are emergencies. When in doubt, call us and describe your symptoms. We will tell you how quickly you need to come in.
How long can you leave a toothache untreated?
The longer you wait, the worse it gets. A cavity that needs a filling today may need a root canal next month and an extraction the month after that. Treating it early is always simpler, less painful, and less expensive.
