What to do if wisdom tooth decay hurts

Wisdom tooth decay can cause toothache. Toothache is a very painful thing for many people. Therefore, we should pay attention to protecting our teeth, brush our teeth frequently, and maintain oral health. If there is some inflammation caused by wisdom teeth, we should also pay attention to avoid spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, we can directly remove the wisdom teeth if necessary.

1. Causes of toothache

1. When wisdom teeth grow normally, there will be pain in the gums being pushed against them. Strictly speaking, this is not a toothache and it will pass if you endure it.

2. Wisdom teeth grow horizontally. Other teeth grow upward in a straight line, but wisdom teeth grow aggressively. Once they touch the adjacent teeth, toothache will naturally occur. If your wisdom teeth grow like this, be sure to remove them as soon as possible.

3. Wisdom teeth are nestled in the gums. Sometimes you can’t see the wisdom teeth at all, but you still feel severe toothache. This is basically the reason.

2. Toothache relief methods

First, after wisdom teeth grow, you should check yourself to see if the toothache is accompanied by swollen gums. If this happens, take care to prevent inflammation. The wisdom tooth area should be thoroughly cleaned every day to avoid toothache caused by residual food.

Second, after wisdom teeth grow, you should pay attention to reducing heat and dryness, and avoid eating foods that cause heat, such as fried, deep-fried, or grilled foods. To avoid making the toothache worse.

Third, if inflammation occurs, anti-inflammatory and analgesic measures should be taken immediately.

3. Prevention in daily life

1. Avoid spicy, deep-fried, or fried foods that are hot in nature, such as peppers, ginger, fried dough sticks, sesame cakes, biscuits, instant noodles, etc.

2. Do not eat partial food, and have a diversified diet. Eat more vegetables and fruits that are rich in vitamins, such as apples, new greens, spinach, carrots, etc.

3. Be cheerful, don't always think about things that bother you, play with friends more, and live happily every day.

4. Live and work in moderation, take enough rest, and don't surf the Internet all night.

5. Pay attention to oral hygiene and brush your teeth every morning and evening. Oral ulcers are mostly caused by oral bacterial and viral infections or vitamin deficiency.
