Tooth pain can have many different causes. The most common include caries, gum disease (gingivitis or periodontitis) anddental abscesses.
Although chest pain is often associated with a heart attack, it can also be caused by other problems.
Tooth pain and anxiety during dental care can trigger a stress response in the body, which can lead to a constriction of blood vessels, thereby causing chest pain.
Pain can also be felt in other craniofacial structures, as well as in the arms, shoulders, and thorax.
Patients with tooth pain or abscesses should receive treatment as soon as possible. It is important to remember that no infection of dental origin is cured by itself.
