Why Does Toothache Increase at Night? Hidden Facts Behind Throbbing Pain <\/strong>\ud83c\udf19\ud83e\uddb7<\/strong><\/p>\n

Does that mild ache you forgot about during the hustle and bustle of the day start throbbing in your tooth like a drum when you get into bed at night? If you think this only happens to you, you are mistaken. There are actually very logical scientific reasons why toothaches \"shift into high gear\" at night!<\/p>\n

Here are the facts behind those sleepless nights:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Gravity and Blood Pressure <\/strong>\ud83e\ude7a<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    For most of the day, we are standing or sitting. However, when we lie down to sleep, blood rushes more toward our head region. When the blood pressure going to the inflamed area in your tooth increases, the pressure on the nerves there multiplies. The result? That notorious throbbing sensation!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Absence of Distractions <\/strong>\ud83e\udd2b<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      During the day, social life, work, phones, and environmental sounds occupy our brain; this \"masks\" the pain signals to some extent. When silence falls at night and you are left alone with yourself, your brain focuses 100% on that pain signal coming from your tooth. In other words, the pain is actually there all along, but at night it gets a bigger \"say.\"<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Teeth Grinding at Night (Bruxism) <\/strong>\ud83d\ude2c<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        You might be clenching or grinding your teeth in your sleep without realizing it. When the pressure of clenching is added to a tooth that is already sensitive or decayed, the pain intensifies and can wake you up from your sleep.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Sleeping Position <\/strong>\ud83d\udecc<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Lying completely flat maximizes the pressure in the head area. If you are struggling with a toothache, sleeping with a high pillow (keeping your head above heart level) can relieve you by reducing the pressure a bit.<\/p>\n

          Important Note:<\/strong> Painkillers taken at night are only temporary lifesavers. The throbbing in your tooth is actually an \"Emergency help!\" signal that your body is sending you. Thinking that the problem is solved when this pain goes away in the morning is a huge misconception; the infection remains right there.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
