The most painful pain is toothache. In its symptoms, it can be different aching or tolerant, very long or short-lived, sharp and sharp. Toothache may appear, suddenly taken by surprise, and often no one is ever ready for its appearance.
Causes of toothache
The causes of this pain can be quite different. It can be as the beginning inflammatory process with the subsequent destruction of a tooth, and the pain appearing at pressing on a tooth. Well, if with constant aching pain everything is clear, then pain when pressing on a tooth occurs when:
- untreated pulpitis, pathogenic microbes penetrate to the periodontal, thereby causing an inflammatory process. Unfortunately, such a pain may occur even in the previously treated toothor healthy;
- the cause of such pain can be caries. In the process of chewing food, some pieces could get stuck in the carious cavity of the tooth, causing discomfort and pain;
- in the already sealed tooth, pain may also suddenly appear, which may indicate both poor-quality treatment and the inflammatory process that has begun.
If the tooth starts to hurt after a visit to the dentist, the best in this situation to go back to the dentist, perhaps, during the treatment, some errors were made or the installed filling was slightly overestimated. Due to injury a crack could appear on the tooth, or when trying to figure out something solid. In the case when it is already a dead tooth and a crown of pain has been placed on it, it may occur because of the inflammatory process that began there. Or the tooth, which was being prepared for prosthetics, was not well prepared - the tooth canals were poorly prepared or when the pin was inserted, a perforation of the tooth root channel appeared.
As a rule, preparing a tooth for prosthetics means depulping dental canals with their subsequent filling. And as a result of poor-quality filling, for example, when the canal was sealed not up to the very top or in the case of insufficiently tight filling. In this case, if an X-ray is taken, voids in the channel will be visible.
As a result of an incorrectly installed crown, when its integrity was broken or a crack was formed, food began to penetrate under the crown of the dead tooth and a pathogenic zone formed there, it began to rot again.
When instrumental canal processing, the doctor can accidentally shift the tool not along the canal, but sideways, and then the tool will pass through the wall, or when turning it (this happens when the canals are slightly curved) it breaks and a piece of the tool remains in the canal.
If you look at these statistics, according to them, it turns out that the cause of pain when you press a tooth is most often unsuccessful tooth preparation for prosthetics, approximately 60-70% of all cases.
