Interesting you should mention that. I have tooth pain quite frequently and recently found out I have five cavities along the chewing surfaces of my teeth. My doctor said this is because my mouth is dry. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night with throbbing teeth on the upper sides. I also had jaw pain last year for several months that no one could figure out why.

Yes spent a fortune on mouth guards and dental investigations. After a couple of flares it's been okay for over a year. Other people here have commented that they have RA in the jaw joints. There are so many possibilities. If its new get it checked out.
