Tooth Caries: A common cause of aching teeth that can wake a patient up in during the night is severe tooth caries (or a deep cavity) that has extended close to the nerve of the tooth. This usually requires root canal therapy to absolve. Please see your dentist right away to ensure that this infection does not progress.
