Tooth pain all of a sudden
Posted: Sun Jun 18, 2006 4:31 pm
I've been in retainers for nearly a month and a half. My teeth haven't shifted at all yet, as expected. Recently(the past few days), I've been getting HUGE pains when putting on my retainers or when I chew with my back teeth on either side of my mouth. My wisdom teeth haven't been removed yet, so I'm thinking them growing in has something to do with the pain, maybe the rest of my teeth are trying to shift? The pain feels like the whole mouth does after an adjustment, but 3 times worse. It's really painful. Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be or what I should do to help ease the pain?
