                     The Real Reason for 
Your Toothache
Tooth pain is uncomfortable and frustrating, but it is not rare. 
It’s something that many people throughout the country deal

about the most common reasons for tooth pain.
 Gum Disease
It occurs when bacteria build up along the 
gum line and causes inflammation. If not 
treated, it may even lead to tooth loss. 
 Tooth Damage

dental crown, or dental bonding may help.
