Recently, I told my friends about my painful teethes. And then he suggested me to consult the dentist about the problems.

So, I made a sentence about my painful teethes, could you please check, is it correct and natural?

It would be more natural if you changed 'painful teeth' to toothache every time.

(Note that we say 'toothache' whether one tooth is aching or more than one.)

Can we use “see” a dentist?
