National Toothache Day

They can also be sensitive to heat or cold.
Treating a toothache in the short term can be simply handled by over-the-counter medications, but seeing a dentist may still be required to address the problem.. Some toothaches are so bad that they require emergency intervention, so treating the early signs of a mild toothache is vital.
