Web Dentists are those who come to know your teeth problems then provide suggestions and prescribe methods over internet. Many dentists and oral hygiene experts are associated with Webdentist. Patients can communicate via emails and also register to connect with doctors of their choices.

Cavities are the prime reason which develop bacteria and cause tooth ache. Tooth ache is also caused by tooth decay, tooth fracture, infected gums and damaged filling. When the toothache becomes severe and lasts for more than two days then one should immediately seek doctor’s help.

Many first aid treatments and emergencies are prescribed over the webdentist and some of the treatments include:

• One should have a clean mouth by rinsing mouth with warm water and flossing also removes the food particles. Salt and warm water solution also happens.
• To subside the pain a cool compressor is used outside of the mouth or cheek, some pain killers should also be given but some pain killers like Aspirin should not be given to any one below the age of 18 and such pain killers should not be taken on the gum area which will make it burn with sensation.
• If the pain does not subside one should visit a dentist.
• There are some natural remedies by which one can get rid of toothache like rubbing clove oil on the affected tooth can bring relief to the toothache since clove oil has properties which kill bacteria and it also acts as a local anesthetic. A paste of ginger powder and red pepper can be applied on the affected tooth for a quick relief. Rinsing one’s mouth with a drop of myrrh acts as an astringent. Peppermint tea also has a numbing power. To kill bacteria a solution of hydrogen peroxide solution can also be taken for a temporary relief. Ice cubes, tea bags also bring relief.
• Better toothpaste for sensitive tooth is the usual norm. Apple Cedar vinegar, vanilla extract, garlic and oil of oregano al help to bring down the pain.
• A softened chewing gum, soft bristle brush and acupressure techniques should be taken care of.

Toothache has many treatments depending on the type of toothache. If cavity is the reason for toothache the dentist will fill the cavity or extract the tooth. If the toothache causes infection on the nerve’s end then the dentist may also go for root canal and for reducing the pain phototherapy is done along with a cold laser which gives relief. The dentist also prescribes antibiotics. Toothaches can be prevented by following simple daily care routine like maintaining a good oral hygiene which consists of brushing regularly with a fluoride based toothpaste, regularly going to the dentist for proper clean ups, less consumption of sugar based foods.
