Toothache Causes
Toothaches can be caused by many different things. The most common causes of tooth pain are the following:
- Dental Cavities | Cavities are the most common dental problem for adults and children alike. Cavities are small holes in the outer layer of the tooth that can grow and cause more pain when left untreated. We provide excellent tooth colored fillings for cavities to patients in Staten Island and the surrounding areas.

Cracks in teeth can break through the outer enamel of your tooth, letting bacteria into the inner nerves and causing pain.
- Gum Disease | Though it may not seem like a serious problem, serious gum disease can spread to your teeth. This is why it is the number one cause of tooth loss in adults. Dr. Hecht and his team provide expert gum disease treatment at their practice in Staten Island.

- TMJ Problems | Your temporomandibular joints, or TMJ, are the joints that connect your jawbone to your skull. Unfortunately, when you have a problem with the TMJ, it can cause pain throughout your head, mouth, and even teeth.
