Question:
Why cant my dentist tell which tooth is causing my problem?
I am in pain it has gone on for a month. I have been on anti biotic anti inflamatory been to dentist several times he adjusts my bite gave me a night gaurd but have been off the antibiotic for two days and im right back where i was a month ago. I told him it was either the top two back or top two bottom. im at my wits end. He said he couldnt see anything on exrays, could the girl not have taken them right? Helpppppppppppppp!
Answers:
there are lots nerves and nerve ending near the upper teeth, so there is noway to tell where the pain is coming from, since all nerve endings come together into one branch and then they all come together into bigger nerves branches etc....so it might not even be the teeth thats the problem
sometimes it called referred pain
