Throbbing Tooth Pain explained
Throbbing tooth pain, the kind that pulses with your heartbeat, usually means the nerve inside the tooth (the dental pulp) is inflamed. Common causes include deep decay, a leaking filling, or a crack that has reached the nerve. This type of pain often gets worse at night and rarely settles on its own.
An endodontist is a specialist in exactly this problem. At our Maitland office, we use 3D CBCT imaging and surgical microscopes to find the cause and, in most cases, relieve the pain the same day with treatment such as root canal therapy.
When to call
Throbbing pain that wakes you at night or lasts more than a day deserves a same-day call. Early treatment usually saves the tooth.

Common questions
Why does my tooth throb at night?
Lying down increases blood pressure in the head, which raises pressure inside an inflamed tooth nerve. Night throbbing is a classic sign the pulp is inflamed and needs an endodontic evaluation.
Can throbbing tooth pain go away on its own?
The pain can fade if the nerve dies, but the underlying infection remains and can spread. Pain stopped does not mean healed; an evaluation is still important.
