![]() Does Your Tooth Need Immediate Treatment?There are numerous experiences that a person can go through depending on the reason for the dying tooth and the person themselves. Due to this, if you experience something that is not normal, it is always important to speak with our office regarding the issues you're having. It may or may not be an emergency. A dying tooth can range in pain from extremely painful to feeling nothing at all. When the tooth goes numb, this could mean that the nerves and other parts of the tooth have already died and the blood vessels running to the tooth are no longer providing the necessary blood flow. Usually, when the tooth is dying, you will notice that it does hurt, and an infection and abscess will form because of the dying nerves. This is an infection that we have to treat before it becomes too bad. A root canal should be done or pulling of the tooth to remove the infection before it spreads anywhere else in the body. This is an emergency situation that needs to be treated by us.
