Need proper evaluation to suggest 'Trigeminal neuralgia' or 'tic douloureux' as this condition mostly affects a larger area of the face. Need Xrays Clinical Tests like percussion,sensitive, etc other adjacent teeth, third molars also to rule out hair line tooth fractures to give you a proper diagnoses.

Hi..
I would like to know more details. do you feel itching only or is there any kind of pain also?
Do you get relief from anything, i mean chewing or any other activity. Does it gets aggravated by anything. Do you feel it the whole day or during specific time period.
Clinical examination will add much more information in this case so better visit a dentist also.

hello,
sometimes what appears to be normal is not,.get vitality test on the tooth done(hot tests,cold tests),also go for an intra oral periapical radiograph for the particular tooth to see some cavity which is not visible clinically that can be irritating as well.

Hello , The first and foremost thing that you need to do is to consult a good dentist, perhaps in the your near vicinity. You must have regular checkups every six months for prevention of such problems later on, this is an international protocol followed everywhere. Next, what I do get from your symptoms is that you have somethingâ€™s known as a nerve exposure of a particular tooth (or sometimes set of teeth).

My left wisdom tooth has been growing in side ways, but has not been able to come in fully. It started hurting about two days ago. I did not think anything of it and thought it was just growing in more. There was a flap of skin/gum covering part of the tooth. When I went to brush my teeth this morning, I noticed that part of it (underneath where the skin covered before) was now a blackish color. I got a sore throat and swollen lymph nodes only on the left side of my throat around the same time my tooth started hurting. Are these related? I have a dentist appointment in a week. Is there anything I can do to help it to make it better or ease the pain? It hurts to chew on that side of my mouth and it hurts when I swallow. Will my tooth be okay until I get to the dentist and what will be done by the dentist? Do you think my tooth is infected? Will I have to take antibiotics?
