Your dentist will examine your mouth, teeth, gums, tongue, throat, ears, nose, and neck. You may need dental x-rays. Your dentist may recommend other tests, depending on the suspected cause.

Your dentist will ask questions about your medical history and symptoms, including:

• When did the pain start?
• Where is the pain located, and how bad is it?
• Does the pain wake you up at night?
• Are there things that make the pain worse or better?
• What medicines are you taking?
• Do you have any other symptoms, such as fever?
• Have you had any injuries?
• When was your last dental checkup?

Treatment will depend on the source of the pain. They may include removing and filling cavities, root canal therapy, or extraction of the tooth. If the toothache is related to trauma, such as grinding, your dentist may recommend a special appliance to protect the teeth from wear.
