I have a question about a tooth ache. Please help me!!?

Question: I have an impacted wisdom tooth on my left side however, I have lots of pain on my RIGHT side of my face. My ear, head, cheek, and jaw throb. I don't have any more wisdom teeth on that side anymore so I don't know what is going on. Could my impacted wisdom tooth be causing referred pain on the OTHER side of my mouth?

Answers:
IT'S GIVING OFF NERVE PROBLEMS BECAUSE IT'S A TEETH, AND ONCE 1 HURT EVERYTHING ELSE HURTS ALSO. . THE NERVE FROM THAT SIDE OF THE MOUTH IS IMPACTING ALSO ON THE OTHER SIDE F YOUR MOUTH. GETTING THAT TOOTH OUT WILL END THAT PAIN ON BOTH SIDES, BUT UNTIL THEN TRY 800MG MOTRIN OR TYLENOL.

yes and it could be either infected or food caught in it. Get a glass of hot water (as hot as you can possible stand it and put regular kitchen salt in it and swish it around do these several times a day and it should feel better, but check with your dentist too. This is possible as it may struck a nerve that is sending the pain to the other side of your face. very possible but I would take alieve until it is taken out. mention this to Dentist also in case he needs to check for infection.

TYLENOL AND WASH YOUR MOUTH OUT A FEW TIMES A DAY WITH PEROXIDE TO RULE OUT INFECTIONS

Probably. My wisdom teeth make my molars hurt like I have a cavity. My dentist swears I don't and it is because of my wisdom teeth. Take excedrin, it's the best.

Until you get to a dentist try taking CLOVE powder/the spice and pack it in there with your finger. The taste might bother you but your pain will stop. Definatly. I had an impacted wisdom tooth and it did that. Or you might have a cavity or chipped tooth. That can also cause severe pain.

It might be because your teeth on the right are shifting from the pressure from the left.
