A member asked:
Can upper jaw/mouth pain be caused by bacterial sinusitis ( which was recently diagnosed)? will antibiotic regimen (bactrim) solve this too?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, if: Yes, if maxillary sinusitis is causing tooth, mouth and jaw pain, and sinusitis is successfully treated, these pains will dissipate. If dental or jaw pain persists, see DDS.
