What should I do if pulpitis hurts at night?

If you suffer from pulpitis, many people will suffer from it, especially at night. The pain is very severe and sometimes it is even difficult to fall asleep. This is spontaneous pain at night. The most important thing is to focus on scientific treatment.

1. The occurrence of pulpitis often causes patients to suffer from unbearable pain at night. Pulpitis is a very common oral disease. Its occurrence seriously affects the patient's diet and sleep. Many patients want to know why pulpitis often occurs at night.

2. This type of night pain is medically called spontaneous pain. In the early stages of pulpitis, spontaneous pain is sharp and generally severe. When pulpitis gradually turns into suppuration of the pulp tissue, the spontaneous pain becomes severe throbbing pain. Severe throbbing pain is a typical clinical symptom of pulp suppuration, and the speed of the throbbing pain is consistent with the pulse.

3. The mechanism of night pain (spontaneous pain) is relatively complex and there is no detailed research data to explain it. The current explanation for the mechanism of this spontaneous pain is that it is a pain caused by increased pressure in the pulp cavity.

4. The reason for the increase in pulp cavity pressure is that when the pulp tissue is inflamed, the apical foramen is blocked by the inflamed pulp tissue, resulting in poor blood circulation in the pulp and causing local congestion. Because the blood circulation in the affected area deteriorates at night and local blood stasis worsens, the pressure in the root canal increases and the pulp tissue is compressed, causing night pain.

5. After suffering from pulpitis, the patient must go to a dental hospital for professional treatment in time. The earlier the treatment, the sooner you can stay away from pulpitis.
