Sinus pressure: Sinus pressure can cause the upper teeth to hurt so bad you think you need "root canals". The lower teeth are not usually affected unless you are also clenching and grinding your teeth due to the sinus pain and pressure.

Multiple symptoms: Based upon your symptoms you should be seen by a periodontist, general dentist, orthopedic surgeon and a primary care physician or ent. Start with your worst symptom and see the appropriate doctor.

Ent or allergist wil: 1. Blood test to confirm the cause of your disease. 2. Xray or ct scan will be helpfull. 3. Skin testing for allergic rhino/sinusitis. 4. Xray or MRI of spine. 5. Ancids or anti-inflammatory.
