Toothache

A toothache is a common problem that can cause pain in the teeth and surrounding area. It can be caused by a number of different issues, such as a cavity, an abscess, tooth decay, or an injury. It can also be caused by gum disease or a cracked tooth. The pain can range from mild to severe and can be accompanied by other symptoms such as swelling, fever, and bad breath. Treatment of a toothache usually involves treating the underlying cause, such as a filling or root canal, and may also involve pain relievers, antibiotics, or other medications.
