A toothache can range from mild discomfort to severe pain that makes it hard to eat, sleep, or focus. At Caputo Dental, we provide same-day appointments for patients experiencing tooth pain. Our goal is to relieve your pain quickly and address the underlying cause so it doesn’t come back.
Common Causes of Tooth Pain
Toothaches can occur for many reasons, including:
- Cavities or tooth decay
- Dental abscess or infection
- Cracked or fractured teeth
- Gum disease
- Impacted teeth
How We Treat Toothaches
We begin with an emergency exam and digital X-rays to identify the source of your pain. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include:
- Filling a cavity
- Root canal therapy for infected teeth
- Medication for pain or infection
- Tooth extraction when necessary
When to Call Us Immediately
If you have swelling in your face or jaw, fever, or a toothache that doesn’t go away, seek care immediately—these can be signs of a serious infection.
