Why does my tooth hurt more at night? 🤔
It’s not just in your mind—there is a real reason for it!
• Pressure: When you lie down, blood flow to your head increases. Since your tooth is a hard, closed space, this creates pressure that pushes on the nerves and makes the pain worse.
• Focus: At night, there are fewer distractions, so your brain focuses entirely on the pain, making it feel sharper.
• Body Clock: Our bodies are naturally more sensitive to pain during the evening.
Important: This kind of pain usually means there is an infection or inflammation inside the tooth that won't go away on its own. It’s a sign that we need to check and treat it as soon as possible.
