More info needed: Pressure all the time? When you bite down? In the morning? When you open? Restorations on the teeth? You've had three exams with no results. Not sure if a consultation with a periodontist would help, but it can't hurt.

Atypical odontalgia: is a poorly understood chronic pain disorder that is best defined as persistent pain in apparently normal teeth or adjacent oral tissues (e.g., alveolar bone, gingiva). The management of AO is extremely difficult and no single approach has proven to be universally effective. See Orofacial Pain specialist for treatment.
