Toothache is usually caused by caries. The severity of symptoms may range from a mild twinge to unbearable throbbing pain.
Toothache can be relieved by self-care, but the cause of ache has to be checked at the dentist’s.Toothache may be caused by a cavity, infection or an angry wisdom tooth. Sometimes toothache can occur after dental treatment following a filling, root canal or tooth extraction. Often toothache is caused by eating or drinking something cold or sweet. Hot and cold or tapping on the tooth may evoke the ache.
