Hi everyone,
After a 4 year hiatus from blogging, it's time to start up again with real, down-to-earth information. Today's topic is unexplained toothaches on the upper jaw. When an x-ray reveals no dental problems, we can often attribute unexplained toothaches in the upper back teeth to sinusitis. The roots of these teeth often extend into the sinus cavity, and the pressure from sinusitis can affect the nerves as they enter the teeth.
If your dentist has ruled out tooth infections, try an expectorant like Mucinex or Robitussin and just watch as the pain melts away in a day or two.
Check back for more info soon,
Yours in good dental health,
Dr. Michael Rogers
