Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Sinusitis / January 2008Sinusitis and Teeth
I've got a lot of tingling in my upper teeth, the kind of feeling you get if you have foil in your mouth or such like. I'm wondering if sinusitis can be the cause I don't have pain in my teeth they are just uncomfortable, but my maxillary sinuses seem to be blocked and there is pressure behind me cheeks as well as post nasal drip.

Yep. The upper molars are separated from the maxillary sinuses by a layer of bone that's only a couple of millimeters thick. Pressure in the maxillary sinuses can cause discomfort to spread to the upper molars. SignatureSteven L. Email: sdlitvin@earthlinkNOSPAM.net Remove the NOSPAM before replying to me. Thanks guys/girls for all the help - today the tingling has settled down a little, but one of my teeth feels very cold (not to the touch, just the feeling) I guess this is something nerve irritation from the sinuses can cause as well? Sorry for so many questions, I suffer with Anxiety as well so this is a nightmare getting these feelings...good thing is my hospital appointment with the sinus specialist is next Friday!

The nerve that goes to the teeth, the alveolar nerve is the very same one that goes to the maxillary sinus and it is quite difficult to tell which area is causing the symptoms. You have to check teeth and sinus both to find out the source. Yes the sinus can cause tooth to ache. You are right about it feeling like a toothache. I had an upper molar tooth that I almost got extracted as I had a toothache for almost 6 months. My DDS could not find anything on an xray so she finally sent me to have it extracted. Then one morning I woke up I had a clear, hot cyst that was in my mouth and that was the end of it. It was much like a jelly fish that I could see through it with a firm center. shirleyann > You are right about it feeling like a toothache.

What are they? Thanks Murray, I assume this is why I am finding it going all around my teeth and not in one particular area, even affecting the lower teeth too.

In my experience ... sadly ... this is like calling computer customer service. Computer company: Sorry, Sir, but it's the software. Software company: Must be a problem with your computer itself. Repeat. Dentist: nope. Not dental. Alllll is fine. ENT: It's not your sinuses. Me: but ... every time I take a step, the upper right molars hurt, and I'm discharging purulent crap when I irrigate. Them: Me dunno. Could you please .... leave? > I've got a lot of tingling in my upper teeth, the kind of feeling you get if > you have foil in your mouth or such like.

It is very painful. Warm moist packs to my cheeks help and also sucking on ice. I have a feeling of swelling in the gums, but it is this tingling that annoys me the most - right on the tips of my teeth!
