Toothache ranges from a dull, nagging ache to a sharp, severe pain that makes it impossible to concentrate on anything else. The cause isn't always obvious from the outside, which is why a proper examination — including X-rays if needed — is essential. We keep same-day appointments available for patients in pain.
You might have this if you notice
We offer several treatments depending on your situation — we'll recommend the right one at your appointment.
If decay is the cause of your toothache, removing the decayed tissue and placing a filling usually resolves the pain completely.
