Toothache is a common way of manifesting dental diseases, and many people consider visiting the dentist only after they have a toothache, not realizing that dental diseases are already present and dental injuries have already been caused. According to information, 80% of Chinese preschool children have tooth decay, 80% of teenagers have gingivitis, 80% of adults have gum recession and root exposure, and toothache is a major factor affecting the quality of life of middle-aged and elderly people. A toothache can definitely be considered one of life’s horrors, and only those who have experienced one will understand how it can kill you. However, many people take painkillers instead of going to the dentist when they have a toothache. In fact, painkillers don’t cure toothaches, but they can cause them to go astray. The most likely causes of toothache are pulpitis, periapical inflammation, wisdom tooth periapical inflammation, pulpitis inflammation and then the pulp cavity in the center of the tooth, the drug has to pass through the tiny apical hole to reach, so ordinary painkillers are difficult to work, you have to find a professional dentist to treat. When pulpitis develops further, bacteria invade the tissues around the root tip of the tooth, resulting in periapical inflammation. Wisdom tooth pericoronitis is mostly due to incomplete eruption of wisdom teeth or obstruction, the soft tissues around the crown of the tooth inflammation, toothache is serious, there may be varying degrees of inability to open the mouth, and even the teeth closed. Therefore, the treatment of toothache should first consider a professional dentist, and then local treatment, and only when necessary may use painkillers and antibiotics. In addition, many people hope that the doctor will pull out the teeth as soon as they have a toothache, but one tooth extraction will be less than one, and tooth extraction is also a kind of irreversible damage, not until the toothache to the point that there is no treatment generally doctors will not consider tooth extraction.
