Diagnosis?: I could give you a list of possibilities which would be of no real help to you. Better than that, see a dentist for a definitive diagnosis. The actual diagnosis will determine proper and appropriate treatment. This requires a complete medical and dental history and a clinical examination. Neither can be adequately accomplished over the internet on this site and at this point.
