Detailed information on brushing and toothpaste.
Here are step-by-step images that show how to brush your teeth.
A crack or cavity in a tooth can cause tooth pain. An infection in the gum or the tooth's root can cause pain and swelling. Pain may spread from the tooth to your ear, or to the part of the jaw on the same side.
A dental abscess is an infection of the tooth socket. The infection causes pain and swelling of the gum, cheek, or jaw.
