It depends. Is the gum erosion on the buccal (cheek) side of the tooth, and is the dentin (root) exposed? That could be caused from using too hard of a toothbrush You should always use a SOFT toothbrush, and use gentle circular motions at the sulcus (2mm part of the gum that is around the neck of the tooth)

When there is no caries then why toothache occur?

A cavity is a defect in the enamel of a tooth, which usually but not always exposes the sensitive dentin and/or pulp to the oral environment. This causes the nerve in the tooth root to become inflammed and irritated, causing a toothache. Other causes of a toothache would be gingivitis (gum disease), pressure on the tooth nerve (such as from an abscess) and neuritis (inflammation of the nerve). While a cavity is one of the more common causes of toothaches, it is not the only cause.
