Random pain?

Message

Okay, so is this normal? I'm guessing yes...

I have random teeth hurt. When the teeth that are moving hurt it makes sense to me, but I've also had random molars hurt for no apparent reason. (3 different molars, 2 on top and 1 on bottom, have done it.) The pain is so bad that it hurts severely to brush it. The pain lasts 2-3 days and then disappears mysteriously. Even to touch it lightly with my tongue was excruciating. And they all happened at different times, not simultaneously.

As I've been very often at the dentist in recent months, I know it's not a cavity or anything like that.

Any ideas? Has that happened to you guys too?

I totally have incredible random pain! It hurts like crazy! I remember for a while there a month or so after bottom braces my bottom teeth hurt so bad I could hardly chew!

And it was totally in between adjustments!

I also seem to have random molars hurting when there really isn't anything going on back there on the top! Its hecka weird!

What I seem to have a lot of is really bad random tooth pain a few days before an adjustment! Its kind of like my teeth are preparing me for the excruciating pain of my adjustments!

Oh well...

That is hecka weird about the canine exposure and bottom teeth hurting. Can't exactly say I had that one happen.

Good luck! Hope your pain goes away Lesdents!

hannah164, that is so true for me... a couple of days before every adjustment, random teeth also start to ache for me. Maybe it's the universe's idea of a sick joke or perhaps some psychological thing where I'm causing pain in anticipation of my appointment?? Either way it sucks...

Tell me about it! I have the same experience.
I get random pain, hurts like hell when I'm brushing. Then it all goes away.

YES!!!

I've got that random pain thing going on right now!

In fact today my whole lower jaw hurts. It just aches. I know it is because of nerves and tissue moving. But it is strange how one day it appears and "poof" it is gone the next!

Good Luck

Glad to hear that I'm not the only one who is random pain right before an adjustment!

I really do think it is some physchological thing where we prepare ourselves for the pain of the adjustment!

It really does stink though!

Just today I've been having some real serious tooth and jaw pain!

It really hurts to bite down and a couple of bottom teeth really hurt!

I guess it might be because I have an adjustment on Saturday!

I don't want to take an pain relievers for the pain because I feel like I live on pain killers because of my migraines!

Oh well... I guess I'll suffer through it and hope it goes away soon!
