The main causes of the symptoms of tooth pain on touch are periodontal inflammation, dental caries, and lack of attention to oral hygiene. Patients should choose appropriate care and treatment according to different causes to avoid delaying the condition.
1. Periodontal inflammation: such as gingivitis or periodontitis and other inflammatory infections, a touch of the teeth may stimulate the periodontal mucosa nerve endings, causing pain, and may be in the chewing of food when the pain aggravates. Periodontal treatment can be carried out, as prescribed by the use of anti-inflammatory drugs such as metronidazole, amoxicillin, etc. for treatment.
2. Dental caries: may cause pulp necrosis, tooth pain and other symptoms. Root canal treatment is usually needed to remove the infected material in the root canal and relieve the pain symptoms.
3. Not paying attention to oral hygiene: not paying attention to oral hygiene in daily life, residual food debris may lead to bacterial growth, inducing oral diseases and pain symptoms. Patients should keep their mouths clean in normal life, often brush their teeth and rinse their mouths, and do a good job of daily oral care.
If the patient’s teeth hurt when touched, go to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the condition.
