[|Human|] I have a sore left jaw, upper and lower, and it radiates toward my ear, and I get a headache. I went to the Chiropractor and he told me my neck was all messed up, but if it didn t go away to see an MD for possible heart attack. I am 47 with no known heart problems. When it happened, I was chewing gum and thought I broke out a filling. It started hurting in my upper and lower jaw and I couldnt tell which tooth it was...
[|AI|]  Hello, You may be grinding your teeth causing stress on the TMJ. I mention this because of the chiropractor telling you your neck has some problem. A night guard can be helpful if you grind your teeth at night and offer some relief. Your dentist can evaluate your bite and make a recommendation. You may have an infection in a tooth that needs treatment. See your dentist for an evaluation and necessary x-ray. If you broke a filling, you also need to take care of that to avoid a larger problem. Broken teeth or filling can also be a result of grinding your teeth. Maintain good daily dental care which includes brushing, flossing, and rinsing. Look for sensitivity to temperatures and pressure. Take Motrin or Tylenol if you are experiencing discomfort before you can visit your dentist. Plan to make an appointment soon. Plan to have a physical to rule out heart problems as recommended as well. Thank you for your inquiry. I hope you feel better soon.
