When the damage reaches deeper layers of the tooth, pain may become stronger, especially with cold, sweet foods, heat or chewing. If the tooth nerve is affected, pain can become spontaneous, throbbing or difficult to locate.<\/p><h3>Inflamed tooth nerve<\/h3><p>The tooth nerve can become inflamed because of deep decay, trauma, a crack or previous extensive dental work. Typical signs include strong pain, night pain, lingering sensitivity to cold or heat and pain that does not behave like ordinary sensitivity.<\/p><h3>Dental infection or abscess<\/h3><p>An infection can develop around the tooth root or in the gum. Symptoms may include swelling, throbbing pain, tenderness when biting, pus, bad taste, fever or feeling generally unwell. Treatment focuses on finding the cause, creating drainage when needed and treating the tooth or infected area correctly.<\/p><h3>Cracked or fractured tooth<\/h3><p>A crack can cause sharp pain when biting, especially when pressure is released. Sometimes the crack is visible, but sometimes it requires careful testing and imaging. Treatment may range from adjustment or filling to a crown, root canal treatment or, in severe cases, extraction. After the acute phase, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gloss-floss.se\/en\/crowns-and-bridges\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">crowns or bridges<\/a> may be relevant for long-term restoration.<\/p><h3>Painful wisdom tooth<\/h3><p>Wisdom teeth can cause emergency pain when they partially erupt, collect bacteria under the gum or sit in a position that is difficult to clean. Swelling, bad taste, tenderness behind the last tooth and difficulty opening the mouth can be signs of inflammation.<\/p><h3>Gum infection or deep periodontal pocket<\/h3><p>Acute pain may sometimes come from the gum rather than the tooth itself, especially when there are deep pockets, tartar, swelling or pus. Cleaning, diagnosis and follow-up are often needed to reduce the risk of recurring problems.<\/p><hr \/><h2>What can you do before seeing the dentist?<\/h2><p>Self-care may reduce discomfort temporarily, but it does not replace diagnosis. The aim is to avoid making the problem worse while you are waiting for professional assessment.<\/p><div class=\"gf-table-wrap\"><table><caption>Safe first steps before an emergency toothache appointment<\/caption><thead><tr><th scope=\"col\">Situation<\/th><th scope=\"col\">You can do this<\/th><th scope=\"col\">Avoid this<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>General toothache<\/strong><\/td><td>Contact the dentist, avoid chewing on the painful side and follow pain-relief instructions from the package or healthcare advice.<\/td><td>Do not wait several days if pain increases, becomes spontaneous or disturbs sleep.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Swelling or suspected infection<\/strong><\/td><td>Seek prompt assessment and note whether you have fever, difficulty swallowing or general illness.<\/td><td>Do not apply heat to the swelling and do not try to drain the area yourself.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Broken tooth<\/strong><\/td><td>Save the broken fragment if you find it and avoid hard foods on that side.<\/td><td>Do not use superglue or household glue in the mouth.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Lost crown or filling<\/strong><\/td><td>Bring the crown or filling to the appointment and keep the area clean.<\/td><td>Do not permanently cement or glue the crown yourself.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Wisdom tooth pain<\/strong><\/td><td>Clean gently around the area and contact dental care if symptoms increase.<\/td><td>Do not ignore swelling, fever, bad taste or difficulty opening the mouth.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/div><div class=\"gf-warning\"><h2>What not to do during a dental emergency<\/h2><ul><li>Do not place aspirin or other tablets directly on the gum.<\/li><li>Do not use superglue on crowns, bridges or broken tooth fragments.<\/li><li>Do not heat a swollen cheek or suspected infection.<\/li><li>Do not delay rapidly increasing swelling, fever or difficulty swallowing.<\/li><li>Do not assume antibiotics alone will solve a dental infection.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><hr \/><h2>Do you need antibiotics for a tooth infection?<\/h2><p>Not always. With a dental infection, the most important step is often to treat the cause. This may involve drainage, cleaning, root canal treatment, extraction or another local dental procedure. Antibiotics may be needed when there is spreading risk, fever, general illness or specific medical risk factors, but the decision should be made by a dentist or doctor.<\/p><p>This is why it is risky to wait at home hoping an infection will disappear by itself. A dental infection can require local treatment even if pain varies during the day.<\/p><div class=\"gf-note\"><h2>Practical principle<\/h2><p>Painkillers may reduce symptoms, but diagnosis decides treatment. In dental infection, the goal is not only to reduce pain for the day.

Avoid chewing on the painful side, keep the area gently clean and seek prompt help if pain is severe, increasing or combined with swelling, fever or bad taste.<\/p><h3>When is toothache considered a dental emergency?<\/h3><p>Toothache is considered urgent when the pain is severe, disturbs sleep, worsens quickly, comes with swelling or fever, or when the tooth is broken, loose or suspected to be infected.<\/p><h3>Is toothache at night a warning sign?<\/h3><p>Yes. Night pain or throbbing pain can suggest inflammation in the tooth nerve or infection. It should be assessed by a dentist, especially if pain does not settle with basic self-care.<\/p><h3>Why does my tooth hurt when I bite?<\/h3><p>Pain when biting may be caused by a crack, infection around the root, inflammation around the tooth, a high filling or another bite-related issue. Avoid chewing on the tooth and book an assessment.<\/p><h3>Can toothache go away on its own?<\/h3><p>Mild irritation may sometimes improve, but recurring or severe toothache should not be ignored. If the cause is decay, infection or a crack, the problem can worsen even if pain temporarily changes.<\/p><h3>What does facial swelling with toothache mean?<\/h3><p>Facial swelling may indicate a dental infection or abscess. Contact dental care quickly. If swelling increases rapidly, if you have fever, difficulty swallowing or feel generally unwell, seek urgent medical advice.<\/p><h3>Do I need antibiotics for a tooth infection?<\/h3><p>Not always. The cause often needs local treatment such as drainage, cleaning, root canal treatment or extraction. Antibiotics are used when there is spreading risk, fever, general illness or specific medical reasons.<\/p><h3>What does the dentist do during an emergency toothache visit?<\/h3><p>The dentist examines the tooth, gum and bite, takes X-rays if needed, relieves pain and performs an urgent procedure when necessary. You also receive a plan for follow-up treatment.<\/p><h3>Can a broken tooth cause severe pain?<\/h3><p>Yes. A broken tooth can cause pain if dentine or the nerve is exposed, if the tooth is cracked or if bacteria reach deeper parts of the tooth. Save any fragment and avoid chewing on the area.<\/p><h3>What should I do if a filling or crown falls out?<\/h3><p>Bring the filling or crown to the dentist if you still have it. Avoid chewing on the area and do not try to glue it back with household glue or superglue.<\/p><h3>What should I do if a tooth is knocked out?<\/h3><p>If it is a permanent tooth, hold it by the crown and avoid touching the root. Put it back gently if possible, or keep it moist in milk or saline and seek dental care immediately.<\/p><h3>Should a knocked-out baby tooth be replanted?<\/h3><p>No. A knocked-out baby tooth should not be replanted, because it may damage the permanent tooth underneath. The child should still be assessed by dental care after trauma.<\/p><h3>Can wisdom teeth cause emergency toothache?<\/h3><p>Yes. A wisdom tooth can cause acute pain if the gum around it becomes inflamed, if food and bacteria are trapped or if the tooth is positioned in a difficult-to-clean area. Swelling, bad taste and difficulty opening the mouth should be assessed promptly.<\/p><h3>When should I seek medical emergency care instead of dental care?<\/h3><p>Seek medical emergency care for severe general illness, rapidly increasing swelling in the face or throat, breathing difficulty, swallowing difficulty or major facial or jaw trauma. Call 112 for life-threatening symptoms.<\/p><h3>What does emergency toothache treatment cost?<\/h3><p>The cost depends on the diagnosis, whether X-rays are needed and what urgent procedure is required. During the visit, you receive information about what needs to be done immediately and what further treatment may involve.<\/p><h3>Can I get emergency dental care in Stockholm without speaking Swedish?<\/h3><p>Yes. Gloss &amp; Floss supports English-speaking patients and explains symptoms, diagnosis and treatment options clearly in English.<\/p><h3>How is this guide different from your emergency dental care service page?<\/h3><p>This page is a symptom guide about emergency toothache, possible causes and first steps.
