Any toothache is serious and should be attended to immediately. The longer you wait for treatment the more likely the extent and price for fixing the problem becomes
Usually, pain indicates a problem. If the pain persists any length of time, it could be serious.
If you have throbbing, sharp shooting pain.
If it is continuously throbbing day and night or if it is getting worse.
