Prompt Relief for Dental Pain in Dubai

Toothache and swelling can be signs of serious dental issues that require immediate attention. At The Nook Dental Clinic, we provide expert care to alleviate your discomfort and address the underlying causes of your pain. Led by Dr. Mariam, our experienced team uses advanced diagnostic tools and treatments to ensure effective and lasting relief.

Common Causes of Toothache and Swelling

Toothache and swelling can arise from a variety of dental problems, including:

1. Cavities: Decay that has reached the inner layers of the tooth can cause pain and sensitivity.

2. Gum Disease: Inflammation or infection in the gums may lead to swelling, tenderness, and discomfort.

3. Abscessed Tooth: A bacterial infection in the tooth’s root or surrounding tissue can cause severe pain and noticeable swelling.

4. Trauma or Fractures: Cracked or damaged teeth may expose the nerves, leading to sharp pain.

5. Impacted Teeth: Wisdom teeth that fail to emerge properly can cause pain and swelling in the surrounding gum tissue.

At The Nook Dental Clinic, we focus on providing prompt and effective care to relieve your symptoms and restore your oral health:
