A toothache with holes in the teeth usually means dental decay, where bacteria damage the tooth and cause pain. Rinse your mouth with warm saltwater, maintain good oral hygiene, and avoid very sweet, hot, or cold foods, as they can worsen the pain. You can take basic pain relief if needed, but this will not fix the problem. It is important to visit a dentist so the tooth can be treated properly, such as with a filling or other care to stop further damage.

Bad smell with a dental clip (braces) usually happens due to food getting stuck and bacterial buildup. Brush your teeth properly after every meal, clean around the brackets using an interdental brush or soft toothbrush, and rinse with an antiseptic mouthwash. If the smell continues, visit your dentist for a professional cleaning and to check for gum infection.

Inflammation, swelling, and tooth pain are usually due to infection or gum problems, so you should see a dentist as soon as possible for proper treatment. Meanwhile, rinse your mouth 2?3 times daily with warm salt water, keep good oral hygiene by gentle brushing, and avoid very hot, cold, or sugary foods.

Severe tooth pain may occur due to infection, decay, or gum problems. Rinse your mouth with warm salt water and avoid very hot, cold, or sugary foods. You may take a simple pain-relief medicine, such as paracetamol, if needed. Consult a dentist to check the cause and receive proper treatment.
