3
2 days ago, you felt a sharp pain
in one of your teeth.
4
Since this unexpected occurrence, youve
continued to experience intermittent pain.
5
The discomfort in your tooth is
beginning to dampen your mood.
6
If you can relate to this scenario, you might
desperately desire to know the cause of your
dilemma.
7
The following issues are common
culprits of aggravating toothaches.
8
TOOTH DECAY
9
Tooth decay results in cavities.
Tooth decay can harm both the inner layer,
dentin, and outer coating, enamel, of your teeth.
10
If you have a cavity, you might experience a
toothache whenever you eat or drink something
hot, cold, or sweet.
11
The bacteria in your mouth transforms them into
acids when foods containing carbohydrates such
as
  • Bread
  • Cereal
  • Cake ? Milk
  • Soda remain on your teeth

12
Join to develop plaque
  • Bacteria
  • Food debris
  • Acid
  • Saliva

13
Sticking to your teeth, plaque
dissolves the enamel on them.
This process creates the holes in your teeth
known as cavities.
14
Kids arent the only ones susceptible to
cavities.
Adults can get them too.
15
As you age, your gums pull away
from your teeth.
When this happens, the roots of your teeth become
exposed to plaque.
16
ABSCESSED TOOTH
17
An abscessed tooth is an infection either
between your gum and your tooth or at the root
of your tooth.
18
An abscessed tooth is an infection either
between your gum and your tooth or at the root
of your tooth.
This oral health problem usually results from
severe tooth decay.
19
However, this painful condition can also be
caused by
  • A broken tooth
  • A chipped tooth
  • Gum disease

20
These issues can lead to openings in
your tooths enamel.
Bacteria is then able to infect the center of
your tooth. This infection can infiltrate from
the root of your tooth to the bones supporting
it.
21
Besides causing excruciating pain, an abscessed
tooth might make you have
  • Fever
  • Foul smelling breath
  • Sour taste in your mouth
  • Swollen neck glands
  • Swollen jaw

22
TEETH GRINDING
23
Grinding your teeth on a regular basis can
result in a host of oral health issues.
24
People often repetitively grind their teeth due
factors such as
  • Stress
  • Anxiety
  • An abnormal bite
  • Missing teeth
  • Crooked teeth
  • Sleep apnea

25
Besides causing headaches and jaw problems,
chronic teeth grinding can lead to fractured or
loose teeth.
This destructive habit can even wear your teeth
down to stumps.
26
This destructive habit can even wear your teeth
down to stumps.
27
This type of trauma might make you have frequent
toothaches.
28
DAMAGED FILLING
29
Dentists treat a cavity by removing the decayed
portion of your tooth and replacing it with a
filling.
30
Besides fixing cavities, fillings are sometimes
utilized to repair cracked or broken teeth.
31
Unfortunately, due to unforeseen trauma or
normal wear and tear, fillings can become
damaged. When this occurs, toothaches can
happen.
32
If youre experiencing a toothache, you might
not be able to concentrate on anything besides
your pain.
You may also desire a solution to your problem as
fast as possible.
33
If a toothache is plaguing you, one of the
aforementioned issues might be to blame.

effective treatment plan.
