Toothache

Probably the most painful dental emergency, a toothache or dental pain definitely knows how to ruin a person’s day.

If you have a toothache, everything is affected. The pain makes it hard to sleep, eat, or go through your simple day-to-day schedule.

At Mayfield Dental Care, we get rid of those tooth complications for you. We offer a same-day emergency appointment to tend to your needs as soon as possible.

What Causes Toothache?

• Tooth decay
• Gum disease
• Dental abscess
• Tooth eruption
• Broken tooth
• Bruxism

First Aid Steps

In case of a toothache, here’s what you can do:

• Make sure that there is no food lodged in your teeth particularly in the aching area.
• Brush your teeth and floss after.
• Use an antiseptic mouthwash or a saline solution. For the saline solution, dissolve ½ teaspoon of salt to eight ounces of lukewarm water. Use this to rinse your mouth for several times.
• Take OTC pain relievers but always be wary of the restrictions.
• You can also use a clove oil to minimize the pain and sensitivity. Apply clove oil on the aching are using a clean cotton swab.
• Never put aspirin directly to the injured area as this can cause a chemical burn.
• To minimize swelling, apply cold compress on cheeks.
• Call and visit your dentist immediately.
