See a caring dentist: Please try to find a dentist that can lightly sedate you. That will take your anxiety away and allow you to be treated. In today’s modern dental world there is no need to be afraid. A tooth hurting for a month is serious and needs to be treated.

Toothache: You probably have a cavity that has gone untreated (there may be others) and has caused a pocket ofi nfection (abscess) that is now spreading. Please see a local Dentist for state of the art treatment that I'm sure you will find to be relatively comfortable. Infections are dangerous and must be addressed immediately. When you call for an appointment let them knowofnyour anxieties.

My mouth has been hurting recently, and I have never had a cavity. But I have always had sensitive teeth and have always grinded them in my sleep. My dentist has showed any concern about either though. Could either of those be causing my tooth pain?
