A tooth abscess, like any abscess, can be exquisitely painful. This is because your mouth is rich in nerves. And if a nerve is injured, by an abscess or dental work, you’ll know all about it.

Damaged nerve pain is typically shooting in nature. As if you have had an electric shock. The pain can be momentary, periodic or continuous, but intense. You may also experience a stinging pain or a numbness.

Sedation dentistry means the application of certain pharmacological agents to ease the tension of a patient during a dental procedure. It is a helpful method to relax a nervous patient so that the dentist can work effectively on him or her. The technique is normally used by dentists for an extensive dental session.
