Tooth pain ranges from a brief twinge to a throbbing ache that keeps you awake. Each pattern points to a different cause — and each cause has a specific fix. The key is not to mask it for weeks.
Not sure which treatment fits your case? Book a visit — we will examine, explain, and plan it with you.
Sharp, short zings from cold or sweet usually mean exposed dentine or early enamel wear. Desensitising paste, bonding, or a gum graft all depend on the source.
A stab when you chew suggests a crack or a high filling. Cracks hide under the surface — we find them with magnification and bite testing.
Pulsing pain that lingers points to an inflamed or dying nerve. This is a root canal conversation — done promptly, it relieves pain instead of causing it.
Upper back teeth can ache from sinus pressure, not teeth. We check for this pattern before treating the wrong problem.
Ache with bleeding or puffiness often comes from the gums, not the tooth. A cleaning plus better home technique usually turns it around.
Rinse with warm salt water, floss to dislodge trapped food, and take an over-the-counter pain reliever as directed. Never place aspirin directly on the gum.
Most tooth pain starts as a small cavity or crack. Six-monthly exams and prompt treatment of small issues keep big pain away.
Our dentists combine modern diagnostics with gentle, patient-first care at every visit.
