Toothache

It has to be the worse pain ever :(

I have sensitive teeth anyway so when I have something cold or sweet to eat then it is painful.

Anyhow, I am not sure whether to phone my dentist but I am not sure if they are allowing people inside.

That's considered an emergency Lynn. Of course they will take you.
 
Toothache is awful. There's just no getting away from it. The dentist's are open for emergencies so I would call them tomorrow morning hun. Sending gentle hugs.
 
I actually suffer from that same problem. I bite into anything sweet and the pain shoots up into the root of my tooth. If you think you have a cavity then you should inquire about an appointment. If you can't do that right away, I suggest getting some of that Orajel Severe Pain medication. It helps with toothaches. Also do you use toothpaste for sensitive teeth?

Yeah I always use the toothpaste for sensitive teeth. I was due a checkup back in April but then we went into lockdown so wasn't able to go and of course my appointment was cancelled.

Mine was too. Of course, you are better than me because I refuse to go to the dentist. :P

That is the worst catsmother. Sometimes something sweet gets caught in the tooth if you rinse your mouth with listerine it helps. Hope you feel better.

One dental hygienist told me to add an extra glob of sensitive toothpaste on the tooth area and let it stand there for quite a while before you rinse it out. If you do that a couple times per day it really helps desensitize it.
