Could that have been a TN kind of thing?

I get tooth pain with the ATN as well. Usually on the right side and since I have had the pain on and off for more than 15 years, I'm pretty sure there's no dental issues, and so is my dentist.
In fact, now that I think about it, tooth pain was probably my first sx of TN, and goes back easily 15 years, with years of remission, and only minor outbreaks of pain. It has only gotten worse over the last few years, which lead up to my MS dx. There are times when it is painful to chew on my right side.
Still haven't figured out the pain at the corners of my mouth, but I'm pretty sure it's related to the TN.
