Can a toothache be a sign of something serious?
A toothache can indeed be a sign of something serious. While it might be caused by something as simple as food stuck between your teeth or minor tooth sensitivity, a toothache can also indicate more severe issues such as tooth decay, an abscess, or gum disease. In some cases, the pain could be related to a crack in the tooth or a failing dental restoration. If left untreated, these conditions can lead to more severe health problems, including spreading the infection to other body parts. Therefore, it’s essential not to ignore a toothache and to seek prompt dental evaluation to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment.
