I Have Been Having Some Pain In My Temple And My Upper Left Jaw. Is This Caused By A Dental Problem?

Thursday, February 6th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Hughes. I have been having some pain in my temple, my upper left jaw, behind my ear and in addition I’ve been getting a burning sensation in my head. Additionally, when I put on my glasses I can feel a ‘tender’ spot over my ear. When I place a cold pack on the area it feels better but I can definitely feel the cold on the nerve which is highly annoying. My question is more about the burning pain in my head. Can that be generated from the nerve in my tooth? It would be great if you could help me clear this up. Thanks.

Q.

I had veneers placed on peg laterals. once covered in bonding it was time to replace the material. My new teeth hurt and look bad. My teeth are moving, partucularly the neighboring teeth on the left and it is ruining my orthadontic work. My jaw hurts despite my following g dentist directions to use Advil and ice. It has been six weeks from her first attempt and one week from her replacing I e veneer due to what she thought was a bad color. My dentist has done six adjustments and one replacement but I can only close my jaw comfortably laying down, not standing, talking, or eating. I have a gap now and a constant headache. What is wrong?

I’ve been experiencing gradually worsening jaw ache since getting a filling. What should I do?

Monday, November 26th, 2012
Q.

Hello. I had a dental filling done about four weeks ago and about two weeks ago I started to get and ache on that side of the jaw. It’s not an awful pain and until today (four weeks since the dental treatment) I haven’t needed pain killers. I went to the doctors two days ago and he couldn’t see anything obvious and prescribed some anti inflammatory tablets. Could this ache be related to the dental treatment? The pain is on the left side of my face and at it’s worst it feels as if the ache is spreading to left ear along the jaw.
