I have had jaw pain for 3 yrs after a cap on bottom tooth.Been to many dentists can not find anything wrong not TMJ.They pulled tooth pain moved to next healthy tooth.I have see many medical Drs too had MRI,CAT scans and Bone scan more than once.The only thing they can say Chonic pain maybe nerve damage.I have to take 5 pills a day and they do not work that great.I hate to take pills because the have side effect plus you are damaging your body other ways.I have no idea what to do,I want my teeth pulled on left side but dentist will not take teeth that he can not see problems with.One top tooth has root canal only tooth with work on it.The whole right side jaw hurts it help with pain to where a whitening tray,because if my tongue touches the teeth on right side bottom mostly i am in a lot of pain.I am at my end and can not live the rest of my life in pain.Do you have any suggestions I am open to everything

I have had the Trigeminal nerve checked in brain after 40 it can be a problem for women and causes jaw pain ,it is not it either. Plus touching the teeth with my tongue makes the pain worse,its hard because there is pain and your tongue goes to where it hurts my family dentist told me.No Dr or dentist can find the answer so they label Chonic pain and put you on drugs.I am an active health 42 year old woman that is living with weird jaw pain for 3 years.

I would try accupuncture, Sensodyne toothpaste, and a night guard. That has to be maddening for you.
