Severe Jaw pain...could it be wisdom teeth?!


Question: Severe Jaw pain...could it be wisdom teeth?
I'm fourteen and my jaw has hurt for days. It's only on the left side. It hurts all the time but it's worse when I eat or open my mouth (I can't open my mouth the whole way anymore) Also my twelve year molars are still coming in (but on the other side) so is it possible for wisdom teeth to be coming in at the same time? Please let me know any theories and if i should have it checked out!

Answers:

Im suffering too. my wisdom tooth is coming out and hurts like crazy.i can t eat right,my tooth hurts every now and then my gums swell up. all i can say is go to a dentist.its the best solution.



You might be clenching your teeth at night or grinding your teeth. That would make your jaw sore and make it harder to open. Your dentist can make you an mouth guard that helps you not to clench or grind your teeth at night. It could be pressure from your wisdom teeth, or a cavity in a specific tooth. I suggest going to a dentist. They'll take an x-ray of that area.
