About Your Tooth
Your tooth consists of two main parts: the crown, which is that part of the tooth above the gum and visible in your mouth; and the root or roots, which is that part of the tooth that lies beneath the gum and is surrounded by bone. Inside each root is a channel that runs the length of the tooth.
Tooth Pain Guide
Tooth pain can range from mild sensitivity to severe, persistent discomfort, often indicating an underlying dental issue that requires attention. It can stem from various causes, including deep cavities, infections, gum disease, cracked teeth, or trauma.
