This Could Be The Reason for Your Tooth Pain

This Could Be The Reason for Your Tooth Pain

Is your tooth screaming at you when you bite down? Does it send a shock through your mouth whenever it touches hot or cold?

 

Dental pain is a common problem, but the reasons behind it could be different than you expect.

 

Here are some other contributing factors to tooth pain.

Stress

Excess stress can lead to teeth clenching or grinding. Often, this happens during sleep, without you knowing. Consistent teeth grinding causes uneven wear, and may damage your teeth. Addressing the underlying stress and anxiety may require a long-term approach, but in the meantime, protect your teeth with a custom night guard.

Sinus Infection

Sinus issues increase pressure that can irritate your teeth, causing pain. If a sinus infection is the issue, you may feel a dull ache in several of the upper teeth. Signs that your sinus is part of the issue include tooth pain alongside a headache, stuffy nose, or feelings of pressure. Seek medical treatment to improve your sinus condition.

Lack of Nutrients

A nutritional diet is as important for your teeth as it is for your body. If you are deficient in Vitamin D, your teeth can weaken and experience damage or pain more easily. Lack of Vitamin B12 or iron contributes to oral sores and increases the chances of painful gum infection. Consume a varied, nutrient-dense diet and add supplements if you think you may have a deficiency.
