Toothache usually occurs as a result of certain dental problems. It is a highly uncomfortable pain felt in the tooth, jaw, and sometimes specific areas of the face. It directly affects and lowers quality of life. In most cases, it is a severe type of pain. Toothache may arise from many causes, such as gum irritation or tooth decay. Minor gum irritation may cause temporary toothache that resolves on its own, but some dental issues can lead to more serious problems.

One of the most common and anxiety-provoking questions patients ask before seeing a dentist is exactly this. Especially when it comes to difficult extractions, wisdom tooth surgery, or long procedures, worries like “If I open my mouth too wide, can my jaw dislocate?” or “Can my jaw lock during tooth extraction?” are very common.

For patients suffering from severe upper jaw bone loss, traditional implants are often not an option — at least, that’s what they’re told. But what if there was a solution that doesn’t require extensive bone grafting or sinus lifts? At Milim Dental in Bursa, Turkey, we provide exactly that through Zygomatic Implants, the gold standard for complex full mouth rehabilitations.
