There can be nothing worse than experiencing a really bad toothache on a public holiday or weekend or after hours. Most dentists keep regular hours, but The Tooth Company are always open and there to help.

Toothache is a very common condition and can be very painful, and occurs when the nerve inside the tooth becomes infected. This can occur from holes in the teeth, deep fillings and cracks, and all of these act as a pathway for bugs to enter the nerve of the tooth. There is always an underlying cause of toothache and it is important to correctly diagnose this cause before any treatment starts. The two most common treatments for toothaches are to either remove the tooth or remove the nerve. These treatments are performed with local anaesthesia and sedation is also available.
