A member asked:
Can a lower impacted wisdom tooth cause pain in upper mouth also? my tooth never came in cuz i had an extra tooth. now minus a molar. still under gum.

That's a little odd: I wouldn't expect a lower tooth to cause upper tooth pain. They are innervated by different nerves. I'd probably go and see a dentist.

Unusual: You probably have separate coincidental problems. Please call your Dentist for evaluation.
