Tooth Pain and Toothache

Emergency Dentistry

Whenever a patience experiences a toothache, it’s important to find relief immediately. Our dentist in Brampton can provide tooth pain treatment quickly to ensure our patients can continue with their daily activities without discomfort and pain. At our dental clinic, we provide emergency dental services which include extractions, root canal treatment, broken tooth repairs and more.

What causes tooth pain?

There are a several reasons why a patient might experiencing tooth pain. Some of the common reasons include:  

  • Pulp infection
  • Periodontal disease / gum disease
  • Dental trauma
  • Tooth misalignment due to crowding
  • Broken teeth
  • Wisdom tooth eruption
  • Bruxism / teeth grinding

Patients may also experience tooth pain from other health related issues. TMJ (temporomandibular joint), for example can affect the joints in your jaw. When patients suffer from TMJ, common symptoms such as jaw pain are often experienced.

The best treatment for tooth pain?

Treatment options for tooth pain will depend on the unique requirements of each patient. Our emergency dentist in Brampton provides emergency treatment for tooth pain, including:

Root canal treatment

Root canal therapy involves the removal of the infected or injured inner portion of the tooth which can help reduce the pain and discomfort a patient is experiencing. Once this procedure has been done, a crown is placed over the tooth to strengthen it. This provides your tooth to function normally.

Tooth extractions

Retaining your natural tooth is the most preferred option however for some patients, this is not an option.  When a tooth is severely decayed or damaged, extraction followed by a dental restoration procedure such as a dental implant with a crown might be the next best option.

Tooth extraction might be required for patients whose wisdom teeth are growing and causing issues with neighbouring teeth or if the wisdom teeth or positioned directly beneath your molars.

Restorations

Our dental office in Brampton provides various types of teeth restoration procedures for broken teeth, cracked teeth and other common teeth problems that result in tooth pain. Patients can keep damaged teeth with a dental crown. A dental crown helps fully restore the function and appearance of your teeth.

Various issues can cause a toothache, often without clear signs of the source of pain. It’s always important to go to the dentist to have the issue diagnosed. Once it is diagnosed, the dentist will give you the right course of action to take and how to treat the issue.
