Tooth Ache :(?

For some reason, after mid-day my left front tooth started aching...i thought it might have been a cavity or something cause ive been eating a lot of nerds lately (the candy of course)


Its odd,even the slightest thing will hurt my tooth from the root,like when i drink something and it touches the tooth-it hurts,even when i breath in allowing the air to hit my front teeth,my left tooth hurts...


anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?it only just started doing that today,anyone suggest anything i could do without needing to make a trip to the dentist? Thanks!

Tooth Ache :(?
Do you drink a lot of soda, juice, or coffee? It sounds as if your enamel may have become thin. It's usually caused by eating and drinking acidic foods and by using a medium or hard bristle tooth brush.





If this sounds like you cut down on the acidic foods, and go get yourself a soft bristled toothbrush. I recommend crest pro-health tooth paste and mouth wash. It prevents cavities and helps ease pain for sensitive teeth.





You should also see your dentist and let him know about the sensitivity. A cavity can sound a lot like sensitive teeth, especially if it's a deep cavity. The only way to know for sure is to have x-rays taken.
Reply:I have been told by a dentist that sensitive teeth can be helped a lot by Colgate Toothpaste for Sensitive teeth-it puts some kind of coat over your teeth, making them less sensitive to hot/cold. I tried it one time and it really seemed to help after I had brushed my teeth with it for a few days. You may have developed a cavity in that tooth, though. So keep paying attention to what makes it hurt. It may be sensitive or you may have developed a cavity, being a front tooth, don't let it go too long or you'll be looking at a root canal and they are expensive.
Reply:Your enamel of that particular tooth have been worn out due to the wrong brushing method ,use any good desensitising paste like sensodyne and improve the method of brushing don't brush your front teeth horizontally it generates electricity and the enamel Will be chipped off.
