My tooth hurts terribly, what should I do?

Unfortunately, severe, torturous toothache usually indicates problems that cannot be resolved without dental intervention.

If your tooth hurts when it is hot and bitten, the pain intensifies at night and you even get throbbing pain, it means a purulent tooth – the treatment should not be delayed. Please call our receptionists for an appointment as soon as possible so that you do not have unbearable pain.

If it hurts to cold and sweet, it usually means a carious tooth. This is a moderate degree of urgency, but once it is painful, do not delay the medical intervention much so that the nerve in the tooth does not die, because then it will become purulent.

It may be that only the gum is inflamed or that a tooth is in the process of eruption – these can be treated easily, often without any kind of intervention, but for safety reasons it is worth asking our receptionists for an appointment.
