2. Cracked Teeth
Cracked teeth are very common, and these might in turn cause trapped nerves, inflammation and abscesses to occur as a result; sometimes, they might even expose the inner-nerve of the teeth directly – and this leads to a very high infection risk as well as a lot of accompanying pain felt in the tooth.
An increased sensitivity to hot and cold in a certain part of the mouth where the cracked teeth are located is another common symptom, and the teeth are always at risk of cracking or chipping further.
You’re certain to experience gum pain and swelling in this case, and you might even experience accompanying bleeding from the mouth depending on the severity of the injury.
Due to the infection and abscess risk as well as the pain, seek out dental help as soon as you realize that it starts to hurt. It’s not uncommon for pain to suddenly become worse.
