Toothache Relief in Allen Park - General Dentistry

urgent dental clinic Allen Park

There is nothing quite like a severe toothache to get your attention and hold it. If you’ve got a severe toothache, remember us at Allen Park Dental Care, where we provide toothache relief and emergency dentistry.

A toothache usually happens when the nerve inside the tooth, or surrounding it, becomes irritated. While a severe toothache might indicate an easily-remedied cavity, it might also be a sign of something more serious, like trauma or an infection.

There are certain signs that your toothache is serious:

Throbbing Pain: It may be in the tooth itself, in the jawbone, or in your neck.
Swelling: The area immediately by the infected tooth may swell, the cheek in particular.
Sensitivity: You may experience pain when sipping or eating things that are hot and/or cold, or from the pressure of biting and chewing.
Swollen Lymph Nodes: If the small areas on the side of your neck seem swollen, it might signal an infection due to tooth decay or a cavity. Consult us immediately if this happens, as it could be a sign of danger to your overall health.

If you notice any of these signs, you should have it checked out right away. At Allen Park Dental Care, we are just a phone call away. We serve satisfied patients in Dearborn, Taylor, and Southgate who also come to us for family and restorative dentistry. Contact us today!
