    So sucky Toria : (

    It might possibly be a result of a temporomandibular joint disorder (if you've ruled out basic gum disease with the dentist) -- being stressed on anxious often results in unconsciously clenching or grinding teeth. While the jaw joint itself may not hurt much, it can cause pain and discomfort elsewhere, like in the teeth, ears, head, etc.

    I have had painful gums and toothache on my left side on and off for a few months. Some days it was so bad I thought I might need an extraction. It stops when my period comes so it has to be hormonal. To help relieve pain I have been taking ipubrofen and rubbing Gengigel onto the sore gums.
