It’s always preferable to keep your natural teeth, but sometimes circumstances require that you have a tooth extracted. Why would you need a tooth extraction? Keep reading to learn more.
To lower your risks associated with poor oral hygiene, you should visit our dentist to assess your oral health and determine if you have any susceptibilities or vulnerabilities. Furthermore, if you notice anything abnormal or irregular about your smile or experience any potential harm to your teeth, make sure you visit our dentist to look for any signs of toothaches.
Toothaches typically arise due to an abscessed tooth that has been infected. If left untreated, toothaches can spread the infection to your jaw bone, teeth and surrounding tissues, so they must be treated as soon as possible. Common symptoms and signs of a toothache include pain even after using medications or pain that continues to occur 24 hours after a tooth has been extracted. Furthermore, if you spot any noticeable discharge from a tooth or facial rashes that have no other reasonable explanation, it could be linked to a toothache. Common causes of toothaches include oral accidents, TMJ disorders, and wisdom tooth eruption.
