Causes of pain

• Caries - damage to tooth enamel and dentin with the formation of a carious cavity in them, where pathogenic microorganisms multiply. Pain symptoms usually occur after eating( especially cold, sour or sweet) and last 2-5 minutes. With deep caries, throbbing pain can occur in the evenings and at night.
• Pulpitis - a complication of caries, in which the lesion extends to the pulp( soft tissue inside the tooth, in which there are arteries and nerves).In this case, the pain is sufficiently strong and constant, can acquire a aching or pulsating nature, often accompanied by an increase in body temperature.
• Flux ( periostitis) is a dangerous complication of caries or pulpitis, in which an infectious inflammatory process affects the periosteum or jaw bone. In addition to intense pain, swelling and reddening of the gums accompanied by swelling of the corresponding half of the face, an increase in submandibular lymph nodes, is accompanied.
• The increased sensitivity of teeth - is manifested by pain when exposed to teeth cold or hot, acidic or sweet, too solid food. It can occur for several reasons: exposing the sensitive dentin in the neck of the tooth, a violation in the body of the exchange of minerals, diseases of the nervous or endocrine systems.
• Errors in the dental treatment of - the causes of severe pain after tooth filling may be incomplete cleansing of the tooth canals, omissions in eliminating the focus of infection, poor quality of the seal materials.
• Extraction of the tooth - in this case, pain for 1-2 days( when cutting the gums - up to 1 week) are considered normal. If the pain does not last long, it can be associated with such factors as dryness of the socket, not completely removed fragments of the tooth, the presence of gum disease( gingivitis, periodontitis), allergy to anesthetic drugs.
• Pain under the crown - is usually associated with poor-quality dental filling. Can be very strong or manifest only when the tooth is pressed. Often accompanied by an increase in body temperature, flux, the formation of purulent cones on the gum( fistula).
• Cracks of tooth enamel - usually show themselves painful sensations when eating, when the food is cold, hot, sour or sweet.
• Teeth injuries - these include bruising, dislocation and fracture of the tooth. Depending on the severity of the trauma can go on independently or lead to a shift or tooth loss.
• Growth and difficult eruption of wisdom tooth( pericoronitis) - usually accompanied by swelling and inflammation of the gums. However, do not wait until the tooth is cut and the pain passes, the process can have negative consequences.

Toothache is most often associated with an inflammatory process caused by pathogenic microbes. With the help of tablets, you can only temporarily get rid of the symptoms, without eliminating the cause of the pathology. Therefore, do not postpone visiting a doctor, otherwise the destructive process will continue and lead to tooth loss.
