Visitor asks:
Hello. I would like to ask whether occasional pain slightly below the temples and pressure in the ears can be caused by the teeth. The question refers to question 169. I am asking about tooth 5 or 6. Thank you.
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
The sensations you describe could be related to disorders of the temporomandibular joint. These can also be indirectly related to the teeth; new prosthetic restorations, tooth grinding, injuries... Unilateral dental pain can cause chewing function to shift to the other side. The muscles and the jaw joint are then loaded unevenly, which can also cause the problems you describe.
Have a nice day!
