Toothache
Let’s treat the pain before it gets worse
A toothache isn’t just annoying it’s your body’s way of saying something’s wrong. Whether it’s a crack, infection or deep decay, getting it seen early can mean a quicker fix and less cost. Don’t wait and hope it passes. Let’s find the cause, relieve the pain and protect the tooth before things escalate.
Why do I have a toothache?
Toothaches can come from decay, infection, cracks or impacted teeth and they rarely fix themselves. We’ll examine the area, take any necessary x-rays, and explain clearly what’s causing the pain. Then we’ll talk through the best way to relieve it and stop it from getting worse.
Often come from decay, infection or cracked teeth
Sometimes the pain isn’t from the tooth you expect
X-rays help us spot deeper or hidden causes
Getting seen early can avoid complex treatment later
We’ll get you out of pain, then plan the next steps
Why you shouldn't ignore your toothache?
Get relief from your pain
Painkillers only mask the problem. We’ll treat the cause so you can eat, sleep and think clearly again without that intense ache hanging around.
Catch problems early
A small cavity today could become an abscess or broken tooth tomorrow. Early treatment helps avoid root canals, extractions or infection.
Protect nearby teeth and gums
Toothaches can spread. What starts in one tooth can affect the one next to it — or even the bone and tissue around it. We stop that early.
Avoid an emergency
Toothaches don’t wait for convenient times. Getting seen now helps avoid waking up at 2:00am panicked, swollen and in pain.
Save money
It’s always cheaper to fix a problem early. A small filling today can stop you needing a crown, root canal or extraction later on.
Get peace of mind
Not knowing what’s wrong can be stressful. A quick appointment gives you answers, a plan and one less thing to worry about.
