If you are in pain, have tooth ache or any swelling, please go to the Emergencies page to see how to contact us.
There are a number of different types of dental pain, as well as a number of causes.
Temporary pain when eating or drinking hot or cold foods can be caused by sensitive teeth. Often this problem can be alleviated by using toothpaste specifically for sensitive teeth, but if after a few weeks it has not got any better please come and see us.
Lingering pain or toothache, or a sharp pain when biting down, is usually an indication that the tooth is decayed, cracked or otherwise damaged. Please arrange an appointment to see us as soon as you can so we can stop the problem from getting any worse.
Constant and severe pain means you may have an abscess caused by an infection. You should see us as soon as possible – we will do our best to alleviate the pain quickly, and to treat the tooth or cause once the inflammation has gone.
Book a consultation at our Practice in Tregony so we can find the best way to relieve your discomfort and get you smiling again.
