From a throbbing 3 am toothache to a cracked tooth due to a sports injury, dental pain can be one of the most bothersome experiences anyone can have. The sensation is uncomfortable, and it often signifies a larger issue that’s been simmering beneath the surface. Ignoring it, or delaying treatment, could worsen the condition and lead to more severe consequences.
That’s why contacting your dentist immediately is crucial if you experience any form of dental pain.

How We Address Tooth Pain
It’s important that we first get a thorough understanding of your oral health. If you’re experiencing a toothache and haven’t visited the dentist in a while, we encourage you to schedule an appointment.
The first step is to conduct a thorough evaluation of your entire mouth. This assessment gives Dr. Dustin Jacobs a picture of the state of your oral health and the direction we need to take to relieve your pain and restore your mouth to a healthy state.
