Experiencing Dental Pain & Discomfort
When eating food? Or drinking something hot or too cold? This is normal for a person experiencing a dental fracture or fractured teeth and that is not something to ignore nor something to feel uncomfortable.
There are many reasons why a person could experience this—could be the result of chewing on hard candy, the grinding of teeth, or even the age itself.
It is very easy to identify what is the cause of dental fracture, but not all fractures construct the same symptoms. But when it does, these are most likely to feel:
- The most common sign is temperature sensitivity.
- The excruciating pain that won't go.
- Inflammation of gum around the infected area.
Did you experience something like these above? Don't hesitate to contact your dentist to get your teeth checked.
