A member asked:
When i brush my teeth on left side of my face,my nerves at the top part of my skull on that side jumps as if connected.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
They are connected: It's called the trigeminal nerve and for some reason the stimulus on the maxillary or mandibular part of the nerve is being transmitted to the ophthalmic branch.
