Tooth Pain
Tooth pain happens when the nerve, tooth pulp near the center of the tooth is breeched. Tooth pain happens once protected inner layers of the tooth are now not fully protected. Sometimes tooth pain can also actually be gum pain, from gum disease or from other gum problems, just be aware of this.
