What symptom does pulpitis have?

summary

Pulpitis is an inflammation caused by bacteria or toxins invading the pulp in the center of teeth. It is mainly characterized by spontaneous and paroxysmal pain. It is clinically divided into reducible pulpitis, irreducible pulpitis, pulp degeneration and pulp necrosis. We need to guard against pulpitis in life, but what are the symptoms of pulpitis? Let's take a look at the following

What symptom does pulpitis have?

First of all, if you don't have severe spontaneous pain, but sometimes you can have paroxysmal dull pain or dull pain, you are already suffering from pulpitis. Chronic occlusive pulpitis: no obvious spontaneous pain, with a long history of cold and hot stimulation pain. Chronic ulcerative pulpitis: no spontaneous pain, patients often complain of severe pain when food is embedded in the teeth cavity, Chronic proliferative pulpitis: it is more common in adolescent patients, generally without spontaneous pain, sometimes eloquence can complain of tooth pain or bleeding when eating, so they dare not chew food with the affected side for a long time

Most periapical lesions, especially inflammation, are secondary to endodontic diseases. Periapical lesions can also affect the pulp. Acute pulpitis refers to the inflammation of acute pulp tissue. The source of infection mainly comes from the deep pulp. The infection of pulp can cause apical infection through the apical foramen. The main clinical feature is severe pain, Generally, the effect of analgesic drugs is not obvious, but it can develop into pulp gangrene in the later stage

Finally, pulpitis is commonly known as odontoneuralgia. It is characterized by severe and intolerable pain. The nature of pain has the following characteristics: spontaneous pain, paroxysmal aggravation, intermittent attack. In the absence of any external stimulation, severe pain occurs in the affected teeth. In the early stage, the onset time of pain is short and the remission time is long. With the development of the disease, in the late stage, the onset time of pain is long and the remission time is short, There was no remission period; The pain was more severe at night than during the day, especially when lying on the back; Early cold and hot stimulation can aggravate the pain. Late cold stimulation not only does not stimulate the pain, but also temporarily relieves the pain. Therefore, it is common for clinical patients to take cold water or cold air to relieve the pain. It is often said that "toothache is not a disease, it will kill people when it hurts", which refers to the symptoms of late acute pulpitis (suppurative stage); Moreover, the pain can not be located, often along the trigeminal nerve distribution area to the ipsilateral upper and lower teeth and adjacent parts of radiation, patients often can not point out the exact location of the teeth

matters needing attention

I think if it's a diagnostic examination, I would recommend patients with pulpitis symptoms; 1, can locate the affected teeth, have a long-term history of cold, hot stimulation pain and (or) history of spontaneous pain. 2, can find out the cause of pulpitis of tooth hard tissue disease or other causes. It is recommended to use dental gold for treatment, superficial pulpitis, immediate effect!
