The source of aching pain
Tooth soreness, like any other health problem, has its source. A throbbing, aching pain in a tooth can be triggered by:
- directly the dental nerve itself;
- periosteum (lower or upper jaw);
- gums.
Depending on the source, the pain may differ: be pulsating, develop into
acute or teeth may ache painfully for a long time. If the source and cause is not established in time, such torment can last a very long time, exhausting the nerves and human health.A reason established in time is the key to correctly prescribed treatment and the speedy elimination of pain and consequences.
Dental disorders
There are quite a few reasons why teeth may ache:
- Improper diet and bad habits often lead to destruction of enamel and the appearance of microcracks. Further, these problems lead to the development caries and, accordingly, painful manifestations.
- Periodontal disease or any other gum disease leads to the appearance of aching pain, and the problem area is characterized by swelling and, when pressed, begins to hurt more.
- Teething wisdom teeth - a process that is aggravated not only by painful sensations, but also by an increase in body temperature.
- Recurrent caries. In most cases, the cause of this problem is the negligence of the attending physician, who allowed the infection to enter the tooth during the filling process. Also, poorly cleaned canals can cause sharp or aching pain. Inflamed nerves will not give rest until they are completely removed.
- Allergic reaction can cause discomfort if, during treatment, the doctor used drugs that are not tolerated by the patient. The result of this treatment is aching pain.
Tooth aches under the crown - the dentist is your burdock
Before you go to put a crown on a tooth, be sure to ask your friends, other doctors, which dentist is better to contact, as it is of poor quality the event carried out can lead to prolonged throbbing aching toothache, and this may be several reasons associated with poor quality preparation of the tooth.
Why can a tooth ache under the crown:
- Root canal filling not up to its apex. As a result of such a violation, a space remains in the root of the tooth, in which inflammatory processes can occur, and infections can develop.
- Also, the cause of pain can be poor quality filling of another nature: the substance can fill the entire canal to the very top, but voids and pores appear in it, which will also affect the condition of the prosthetic tooth.
- Wall perforation. There is naturally a hole at the top of the root canal, but in this case we are talking about artificial perforation, which occurs due to poor-quality tooth filling. When cleaning the canal, the sharp parts of the device may not pass through the canal itself, but go beyond it at an angle, which in the future will lead to aching toothache.
- In the root canal the pin itself may be incorrectly positioned.
- Cases and breakage of the instrument in the root canal due to improper operation of the device or its repeated use (at the end of its service life).
The wisdom tooth is supposed to "whine and cry" by status
The growth of wisdom teeth is accompanied by a number of unpleasant and painful symptoms:
- increased body temperature;
- jaw pain: dull, aching;
- swelling of the gums;
- difficulty swallowing;
- lymph nodes increase;
- there is a "hood" over the already slightly erupted tooth.
All these unpleasant sensations have their own reasons:
- Bone tissue formed before the age of thirteen. If the change of milk teeth and eruption in infancy still occur through not so hard tissues, then by the moment the wisdom tooth erupts the path is much more difficult.
- Second cause of pain lies in their most disadvantageous location: since they have little space for normal growth, in addition to painful eruption, the problem of the wrong direction of their growth may arise.
Healed his teeth, yes so, I already want to cry
Any dental treatment is the invasion of a foreign body (devices), which naturally leads to painful sensations in the gums and teeth. This is normal and does not bode well, unless the pain lasts more than a week or two.
If this problem does not go away by itself, you should go to see a doctor, as the cause of the pain can be:
- human intolerance to filling material;
- the quality of the filling or treatment performed depends on the qualifications of the doctor himself: an inept specialist may not completely remove inflamed tissue, work poorly with filling material, disrupt the processing technology and treatment;
- breakage of equipment inside the channel;
- the transition of inflammation to the gums.
When the dentist won't help you
Also, there may be cases when teeth ache for non-dental reasons.
Even an experienced dentist will not immediately be able to explain what is the reason. If such a case has become relevant for you, do not endure the pain: this cannot be done under any conditions, immediately go to an appointment with a therapist, as it may be:
- Angina pectoris. During physical activity, the body may lack oxygen, which leads to irritation of receptors, and this "misleads" a person who has a feeling of aching pain in the teeth.
- Naughty trigeminal nerve. Neuralgia can occur due to hypothermia or a weakened immune system.
- Sinusitis is a common cause of aching pain in the teeth due to inflammatory processes in the maxillary sinuses of the mucous membrane. The pain will be felt especially strong when chewing, eating hot foods.
Home emergency help
The main rule when a toothache of any nature occurs - it cannot be tolerated!
The fight must begin immediately. What can you do if your teeth ache unbearably, throbbing pain hits your temples, but now you cannot see a doctor?
At least take an anesthetic pill: Ketanov, Sedalgin, Nurofen. These drugs, besides the fact that after a short period of time, they will begin to act, they will also help to relieve inflammation a little.
A positive result from taking the pills does not mean that you can postpone the visit to the doctor: even if the tooth did not bother you for a day, you need to check it.
Compresses will help:
- moisten a cotton swab in calendula tincture and apply to a sore tooth;
- apple cider vinegar compress;
- compress from a solution of soda;
- attach a piece of bacon to the tooth.
Mouth rinse:
- sage tea;
- soda solution (1 large spoon in a glass of water, preferably warm);
- sea salt solution (1 large spoon in a glass of warm water);
- half a glass of water 50 grams of hydrogen peroxide.
Do not warm the problem tooth under any circumstances: blood flow can cause increased pain. In this situation, you should act on the contrary and apply an ice cube for a few minutes. It is also not recommended to lie down, as this can cause blood flow and exacerbate the pain.

Dental care
If the essence of the problem lies in the appearance of caries, a filled tooth hurts or aches unbearably under crown, an urgent visit to the doctor is required, who will begin treatment or correction of the errors.
If inflammation has caused pain, the doctor, in addition to treatment, will prescribe rinsing with soda or chamomile and taking painkillers.
The use of any drug must be carried out under the supervision of the attending physician: self-medication is not allowed. In an emergency, you can take a one-time pain reliever, but then visit your doctor.
Toothache is excruciating and can be caused by a banal violation of the rules of hygiene, nutrition, general health, as well as the negligence of doctors.
To protect yourself and your teeth, do not forget to take care of your oral cavity, consume enough vitamins and see your dentist regularly.
