Toothache

Most of us have had toothache in some way in our lives. This situation has been in our memories as a good or bad experience. There are many factors that can cause tooth pain.
 
In order to understand the source of a toothache, it is first necessary to know the anatomy of the tooth. Our teeth are living beings with nerves and blood vessels that keep them healthy. The first visible and generally white layer of the tooth is the enamel, and underneath it is another hard (but more yellowish) mineral called dentine. The lowest layer is the nerve and blood vessels called pulp. Dentin consists of thousands of microscopic pores that communicate with the nerves in our teeth. When these pores are exposed, ie, the protective layers on the surface are removed and remain unprotected against heat, cold, sweetness or other stimulants. These pores are also distinct in the tooth roots because there is no enamel layer around our tooth roots.
