Dental pain can range from a mild sensation
to your worst nightmare. The nerves in your teeth are each connected to a main
nerve branch. The main nerve branches from upper and lower jaw both meet in front
of your ears. Pain from a single tooth can radiate to your ear, or other parts
of your head and neck. Very often it can be impossible for you to tell which tooth
is giving you trouble. Sometimes it takes serious “detective”
work on the dentist's part to locate the offending tooth. Any information you
are able to provide us is helpful. It is also in your best interest to call the
office as soon as you become aware of a problem developing. Waiting can only make
it worse. We are here to help, and the sooner we can examine you, the sooner we
can help, and ideally head off a severe episode of pain and suffering. |
