To be able to tackle something, even fight it, it is always wise to learn a bit about your enemy so that you can handle problems and emergencies efficiently. Such a problem that can flare up unexpectedly is toothache, and it can take on many guises and be caused by several things, none the less, the outcome will always be uncomfortable. Tooth decay is the usual villain and it can not only cause terrible pain, but it can leave you toothless in the long run, pretty much like gum disease can cause as well, and lead to infections from abscesses. Other problems stem from minor injuries; chips and cracks can leave the tooth vulnerable to changing temperatures. Most forms of tooth ache can be treated with painkillers until your dentist can treat you. However, having a tooth knocked out, getting an abscess or impacted wisdom teeth can be dangerous, so these are needed to be treated immediately so if need be, get along to the hospital in south east London.
