Not correct: At 58 the last of your teeth should have erupted >40 years ago. It's important that you see a dentist or oral surgeon immediately for an examination. This is definitely something that should be evaluated right away.

New teeth? Pain!: I'm not sure if you accurately stated your age. However, and regardless, anyone with dental pain needs to see a dentist for an evaluation and appropriate treatment. The fact that you have recurring dental problems would suggest that you do not see your dentist on a regular basis and\or don't get routine proper care. If you want to end these ongoing problems, you need to change your priorities.
