Many people have toothache in their daily life, but they often ignore toothache. In fact, the hidden danger of toothache is very big. Now let's see what "mystery" toothache can hide?

A new Swedish study shows that toothache is likely to be an early sign of heart attack, and women are nearly 40% more likely to have this sign than men.

According to the Daily News of Sweden, researchers from Umeo University in Sweden surveyed 186 patients with heart disease and asked them to point out the uncomfortable parts before the disease. 71 patients reported having oral discomfort, most of them women. Some patients had a dental examination before the onset of the disease, but the dentist did not find the real cause. As a result, the patient's pain did not improve and turned to the internal medicine department, which was found to be suffering from heart disease.

Researchers pointed out that not all toothache is a precursor of heart disease. If people feel pain in both teeth and chewing food will aggravate the pain, they should pay more attention and seek the help of doctors in time.

In case of toothache, timely treatment is the key. Introduce several methods to deal with toothache:

caries

Commonly known as tooth decay. When the disease is serious, you will feel toothache, especially when eating hard food or meeting sweet, sour, cold and hot, the pain will be aggravated. Middle-aged and elderly people will also feel sore due to gingival atrophy and root exposure. The fresh garlic can be peeled, mashed as mud, and stuffed in the cavities; It is also advisable to apply proper amount of Yunnan Baiyao into a paste with warm boiled water and smear it on the periodontal and gingival areas; In addition, you can apply balm essence and ten drops of water on the affected area, or continuously brush your teeth with a large amount of anti-acid toothpaste, which will quickly relieve the pain and then disappear. For those who suffer from toothache due to tooth allergy, 2-3 pieces of baking soda can be ground, dissolved in 1 cup of cold boiled water, and rinsed several times a day. Or apply it with garlic yellow wine immersion solution, and it works.

Dental neuralgia

When dental caries invades dental pulp, it is caused by bacterial infection. It is manifested as spontaneous and paroxysmal acute pain, which can occur without any stimulation. It is easy to attack at night, and the pain is more severe than that in the daytime, unable to sleep, and extremely painful. The reason is that after lying in bed, the pressure in the pulp cavity increases, and when the pulp is suppurated, a certain amount of gas will be produced, which will cause severe pain in case of thermal expansion. Cold compress can be used to relieve pain in emergency. You can also dip 75% alcohol in a cotton ball and apply it on the toothache for 2-3 minutes, and then press the alcohol cotton ball on the toothache. Or take one piece of fresh ginger and put it in the pain spot.

periodontitis

This is another cause of toothache, which is manifested as swollen gums, swelling and pain, causing tooth loosening and displacement, and even periodontal bleeding and pus, accompanied by bad breath and other diseases. In recent years, medical research has found that it is closely related to anaerobic infection. You can take metronidazole (also known as metronidazole), two tablets each time (200 mg), three times a day, but you should avoid alcohol. You can also take compound sulfamethoxazole, 2 tablets each time (500 mg each), twice a day, twice for the first time, but it should not be used for allergic patients.

For toothache caused by caries combined with infection, periodontitis, gingivitis, pulpitis and other diseases, you can take 6 Liushen pills and a little yellow wine to grind them into the cavities, or grind them into the gums and mix them with saliva, which can quickly relieve the pain to disappear.
