Referred dental pain can be difficult for practitioners to diagnose without an understanding of the cause of dental pain and how teeth respond to different pathologies. Referred dental pain is caused by real symptoms that need to be treated, and in this episode Dr. David Alleman discusses types of referred dental pain, tips for diagnosing cracks under restorations and procedures for eliminating post-operative sensitivity through biomimetic restorative dentistry.
