Overcoming Pain and Dental cavities

Dental cavities are not caused by worms such as the opinion of those in ancient times. This theory lasted until the 1700s until Willoughby Miller an American dentist who works at the University of Berlin found the cause of tooth decay. He found that cavities are caused by the meeting between the bacteria and sugar. Bacteria will convert sugar from food scraps to acid which causes tooth to become acidic environment (natural environment teeth should be alkaline) and acid is what ultimately makes a small hole on tooth enamel.

When a hole occurs on tooth enamel, we have not felt a toothache. However, a small hole next to the email can be a gap remaining food and the bacteria will make the hole bigger the punch dentin. At this time we will feel the pains in the teeth while eating. If allowed, the hole will come to the hole so that our nerves will start to feel a toothache. This process will not stop until the teeth eventually become exhausted and the only remaining tooth root.

Toothache can not be underestimated as some people, because if ignored, can make the teeth becomes swollen and inflamed. In addition, cavities can be a means of entrance channel to channel blood disease germs that can cause kidney disease, lung, heart and other diseases.

For not getting worse, so if you have cavities you should immediately visit your dentist to treat it. Although many people do not like going to the dentist with a reason not care about the state of teeth, expensive worried, afraid or ashamed of being ridiculed because of damaged teeth, but go to the dentist is the best solution to deal with a toothache. Cavities can not heal by itself. Although, possibly after suffering a toothache, the pain may disappear but do not improve the situation of teeth. Teeth will remain hollow, the hole will keep growing even bigger.

Teeth and Dental patching Disconnect
The measures will generally be taken dentist is mending a broken tooth, if the hole is not too big. But if we feel the pain of teeth, the fillings can not be directly carried out, because then the gas in the tooth can not get out. The doctor will give you painkillers or will turn off the tooth nerve so that we are not tormented with the pain. On the next visit before the teeth will be cleaned and patched temporarily, permanently filling done on my next visit again.

If the hole is too large and not allowed to be patched, it means that the teeth should be revoked. Just as the process of filling a tooth, the tooth could not be immediately revoked when the teeth still hurt. It is caused when we feel a toothache, then the anesthesia drugs (drug resistant so as not to feel pain when the teeth removed) can not penetrate the roots of teeth, so that when removed will cause tremendous pain. The process of tooth extraction can only be done when a tooth is not painful and to relieve pain doctors will kill the tooth nerve.
