What is a toothache?

Toothache is any sharp or severe pain in and around a tooth. Without correct diagnosis and timely treatment, the potential exists for the toothache to get worse. Your best next step is to contact an emergency dentist to have your specific situation diagnosed and treated.

LILLYBROOK DENTAL

What causes toothache?

Of the many causes of toothache, the most common is decay from acid producing bacteria in the mouth caused by sugars that corrode tooth enamel. Pain occurs as decay exposes tooth nerve endings. Decay continues until treated, the pain intensifying when infection sets in the surrounding tissues. The tooth does not mend itself.

Other causes may be from gum disease, cracked teeth and worn teeth. Lack of saliva and hereditary factors can also contribute to tooth decay.

How to prevent toothache

Having a toothache is a big incentive to prevent them recurring, so it pays to know how to a thing or two about good oral health practices.

We encourage our patients to take a preventive approach, and while it may not sound high-tech, the basics of good oral hygiene really do work.

Twice daily brushing and daily flossing are essential. Fluoride in water and toothpaste can help too, but ultimately if you want to prevent a toothache, the very best thing you can do is commit to looking after your teeth for life. Short term protection can be found in mouthwash, which lowers the bacteria in saliva. Stimulating saliva production by chewing sugar-free gum can also help.

Regular visits to your dentist for a preventive care dental check and clean are another key to preventing a toothache.

Have a toothache right now? Here’s how to get relief from a toothache

Paracetamol may bring pain relief until you can see a dentist. However, for your own wellbeing you should seek an immediate dental appointment with the Lillybrook Dental team if you are experiencing any or all of the following symptoms:

  • Obvious inflammation, abscess or fever
  • Generally feel unwell
  • A swollen jaw or face
  • Injury caused by trauma such as a blow to the mouth

Our approach to treating your toothache is two-pronged. We will help relieve you of acute pain, however, we will also investigate the cause of the toothache. That way we can support you to take steps to better oral health. Toothache? Let the Lillybrook Dental team help.

Any invasive or surgical procedure has risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner. Individual results can vary.

Testimonials

I’ve been to many different dentists over the years, and I would have to say that this is up there with the best! The staff are so professional, and yet so very friendly. The dentist himself, was also very friendly and did such a great job. I would highly recommend this dental surgery

Jodie

I can’t recommend Dr Raj and the team at Lillybrook Dental enough! I was 35 weeks pregnant and developed a terrible toothache (the worst timing!), they fit me in quickly and did everything they could to save the tooth, giving me all options and no pressure. I ended up needing a root canal and crown and was very upset and worried about the pain, they reassured me and despite the outcome for my tooth I had a great experience. The crown has been fitted and I am so happy with the end product. Highly recommend!

Ashley

Having been to various practices over time, and addressing issues with a “patch-up” approach, it was time to consult with a Dentist who could advise on a treatment plan that would provide longterm results. A friend recommended Lillybrook Dental. After a very thorough initial appointment Dr Raj put together a staged treatment plan to restore my teeth to their former glory. Six months later, thanks to Dr Raj and his team, I have my smile back. Most importantly I can eat the food I want without any fear of causing days of pain to my teeth or gums. I am so glad I put my trust in Lillybrook Dental. Thanks!

Steve

From the moment I walked in until the moment I left I felt very cared for by all of the staff I encountered. Everything was explained in detail as to what my options were and what the best choice would be for my treatmemt. Extremely accommodating and so kind, I felt completely at ease. With payment options such as Afterpay, Zippay and Openpay available, making it much more comfortable when it comes time to pay the bill.

Kerrie

I am a very anxious patient and Dr Raji is very calming and gentle in her care with me. She is also very patient with me and would highly recommend coming to Lillybrook Dental Surgery as the whole crew is lovely !

Hayley

Dr Raj and his team are always gentle, professional and very efficient. My husband and I have both had extractions done and Raj is so proficient at this.

The team are so kind and assuring as well which helps you feel calm. We totally recommend them for all your family dental care.

Melissa

I have nothing put praise for the friendliness of Ena on the front desk she is just the right person for the job. Then we have Dr Raj who has been very kind and gentle with doing any dental work on my teeth. He explains every bit of work that needs to be done in layman terms which is great and his dental nurse is very caring.


Thanks for the great experience and will continue visiting your Surgery .
