We just saw a patient earlier today who was concerned about some discomfort she was having. Her lower front teeth were a little sore all of a sudden. Her Mom thought it would be a good idea to have us check it out. We agree - if you have any concerns, give us a call and we will be happy to see you as soon as possible.
This person found it very convenient to see us since she works here at Polo Park. We were pleased to be able to reassure her that everything was going fine. Her teeth are looking great and her treatment is progressing very well. It is not unusual for teeth to be occasionally sore at times in treatment. It is not common, but it can be normal. It usually lasts for part of a day or perhaps one or two days.
Rinsing with cool water or taking some Ibuprofen or Advil for the discomfort can settle things down. The discomfort will pass. If it is lingering longer, or if you are concerned - call us - we are happy to see you.
