Fourth, the causes of toothache in children

1, trauma

It is common for children to accidentally fall and hurt their teeth, and sometimes they bite sandstone bones when eating, causing traumatic apical periodontitis of teeth and causing pain. If the teeth are just a little loose, just take anti-inflammatory drugs and soft food for a few days and let the affected teeth rest for a week; If the tooth has been broken, you need to ask a doctor to pull out the exposed tooth nerve under anesthesia, and then fill or extract the tooth.

2. No eating, no toothache

I have a toothache when I eat, especially when I eat cold and hot. Generally, teeth have deep holes, so you must go to the stomatology department for treatment. Shallow cavities can be filled, and heavy ones need to be inactivated before filling teeth.

3. Toothache is characterized by paroxysmal pain without inducement.

Children cry in waves even if they don't eat. They often feel a toothache, and they can't point out any specific toothache. It gets worse at night. They often cry all night and refuse to lie down. This is a typical inflammation of pulp nerve.

In this case, it is difficult for any painkiller to work. Only by taking the child to the stomatology department immediately, let the doctor grind his teeth with a dental drill and put on a little anti-inflammatory painkiller, the pain will be relieved immediately. However, such a tooth will be filled alive after painless, and it needs multiple follow-up visits;

The child's teeth keep aching.

If left untreated, it will get worse every day. At the same time, dental caries will become red and swollen, and teeth will float. In severe cases, your face will swell, submandibular lymph nodes will swell, and you will have fever symptoms. This is inflammation around the root tip of teeth, which sometimes develops into suppurative inflammation. In this way, it is necessary to ask a doctor to grind his teeth to extract pus, take antibiotics orally or intramuscularly, and change the medicine repeatedly until the inflammation is completely eliminated before finally filling the teeth.
