Thank you for sharing your experience! I am going to ask my new dentist to look closely at my x-rays now to see if there might be an infection.

I just had a filling but he drilled very deep and it was super painful for days afterwards, this same tooth had been drilled multiple other times so the last time he really seemed bent on being thorough and getting all of the diseased parts of the tooth. That being said there could still be an infection there as the tooth was not removed totally.

Anyway, thank you for the info- Im seeing a chiropractor who has been working with my apparent TMJ so hopefully that will help get rid of this feeling- I am trying just about anything i can!

Thanks!!!
