Tooth Pain?
Posted: 08-16-05 10:38am

For the past few days, when I wake up one of my back teeth hurts slightly. It only hurts if I "bite down" with my top teeth. I'm really worried this is something very bad. Any ideas on what it could be??

You could have cracked your tooth. Have you been eating anything hard latley. Or if it is a top tooth, sinus problems such as a cold could cause it.

I have the same thing.. I went to the dentist and he could not find anything.. It went for over a year.. I said something to him about it and when i was in getting another filling in a adjacent tooth he removed that filling to find.. A cavity under the old filling.

Well here I am 6 months later and Still, same pain in that tooth when I press down only in the morning when i wake up.. once i press on it.. rest of the day is painless.. So when I go back IN a few more months.. Hes going to check it again.. I dont think he got all the cavity out.
