Common causes of toothache are listed and categorized as being of tooth origin, such as reversible or irreversible acute pulpitis, or related to gingival supporting tissues, such as chronic periodontitis, acute apical abscess, or lateral periodontal abscess. A differential diagnosis helps determine the most likely cause of a patient's toothache.
