You might notice it when you chew, talk, or yawn first thing in the morning. And while it&#8217;s fairly common, it\u2019s not something you should ignore. Several issues can cause this discomfort, some minor, others more serious. However, you often won\u2019t be able to find the source without a professional. Here are some of the common causes of jaw pain, and how your dentist can help you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rivierafamilydentistryofmesquite.com\/emergency-dentistry.html\">find relief<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TMJ Disorder and Joint Strain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most common causes of one-sided jaw pain is a problem with your temporomandibular joint, often called the \u201cTMJ.\u201d This complex joint connects your jaw to your skull on each side of your face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If one joint is strained or inflamed more than the other, it can lead to pain on just that side. You may also notice clicking or popping sounds, headaches, or difficulty opening your mouth wide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teeth Grinding and Clenching<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people grind or clench their teeth without realizing it, especially at night. Over time, this extra pressure may overload one or both sides of your jaw. This can cause soreness in your jaw muscles, joint tenderness, and even worn or chipped teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a regular checkup, your dentist can look for signs of bruxism (teeth grinding) and recommend treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dental Issues<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes, your jaw pain may not come from the joint at all! Other issues, like tooth infections, abscesses, deep cavities, or cracked teeth, can create pain that feels like it\u2019s in your jaw because the nerves are so close together. This is one of the reasons why it\u2019s so hard to diagnose your discomfort without help from a dental professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your jaw pain is focused near a particular tooth, or you notice sensitivity to hot, cold, or biting pressure, a dental exam is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sinus or Ear Infections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similar to dental issues, sinus infections, allergies, or ear problems can also cause pain that radiates into one side of your jaw. In these cases, you might feel pressure in your cheeks, around your eyes, or in your ear, alongside your jaw soreness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whatever the cause of your discomfort, if it lasts more than a few days, it\u2019s best to schedule an emergency dental appointment. Once in your dentist\u2019s care, they can examine your mouth and surrounding structures to find the issue and help you solve it through treatment or referral. Don\u2019t tough it out. Relief may be just a quick dental visit away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rivierafamilydentistryofmesquite.com\/contact.html\">Riviera Family Dentistry of Mesquite<\/a>, we\u2019re dedicated to keeping your whole family\u2019s smiles comfortable, functional, and healthy.
