A member asked:
I have a sensitive tooth, would that cause a weird smell in my nose?

Very unlikely.: It there is a weird smell, it is more likely there is some kind of bacteria harbouring somewhere in your mouth, or even a persistent infection. See you dentist.

Possibly: Have you had the tooth checked by a dentist? If it is an upper tooth, it could be possible that you have some sinus involvement causing your tooth to become sensitive and it is actually sinus related. Have an ENT check your sinuses or a dentist check the tooth. Sinus infections can many times show up in a dental x-ray.
