Sometimes, a busy schedule can make even a serious problem feel like something you can simply choose to ignore. Unfortunately, when it comes to your oral health, ignoring a problem can lead to further complications that have to be addressed when you finally see your dentist. If you have a toothache, it can indicate the formation of a cavity serious enough to cause an infection within the tooth.
