When you have pain in your tooth that lasts for more than a day or two, this could likely be due to cavities or possibly an infection. To stop your toothache and prevent the risk of tooth loss, we could provide help with restorative dentistry. In today’s blog, Mansfield Dental Associates talks about how we stop toothaches with custom dental restorations.
Cavities, Infections, and Aching Teeth
When you have pain in your tooth, this could be due to several possible issues, including sinus or allergy concerns, or even relocating to a more mountainous region at a higher elevation. Even an airplane ride could mean a temporary ache! But if the pain lasts for more than a day or two, you may need to see our team for restorative dentistry. This can allow us to stop the source of your pain, and provide lifelike results. We can examine your tooth to see if you have decay or infection, and then create a plan to treat the issue and restore comfort to your smile.
Dental Fillings and Crowns
If you have a cavity, we can most likely treat the issue in only one visit with a dental filling. Made from composite resin, this material is biocompatible and bonds with the tooth, but we can also shade it to blend with your smile. The same material can be used in a bonding procedure to repair damage and mask cosmetic imperfections too.
For more severe decay, we could offer a crown that caps the tooth. This is made from durable and lifelike materials like porcelain, porcelain-fused-to-metal, or zirconia, all of which can handle daily bite forces and be shaded to blend with the rest of your smile.
Root Canal Therapy
If a tooth is fractured or infected, we may need to first conduct a root canal to remove the tissues from the interior of your tooth that have been personalized. We then add a new medicated filling and cap the tooth with a crown, which helps prevent pain and the risk of tooth loss or need for extraction. Our team can help stop pain and ensure the results look natural too!
