Natural teeth are precious, but many people lose them because of decay, injury, and extractions. Consequently, it gets difficult for the person to bite and chew food and he feels constant discomfort in the mouth. However, where tooth loss is inevitable, the missing teeth can be replaced with dental implants.

If you feel a sharp and intense pain in your tooth while chewing and feel sensitivity to hot and cold foods, it is likely that you have an infected tooth. While you may try to avoid going to your dentist, the excruciating pain and swelling in your gums can only be alleviated with a proper dental treatment.
