I've been experiencing lower right tooth pain for a few weeks. Ibuprofen usually handles it well. I saw my dentist today. I had full x-rays and extra shots of my problem area. I also had an exam. He saw nothing. He said there's no problem at all, anywhere.
Am I clenching my teeth and not realizing it? Could my mild allergies this season have something to do with it? Any other ideas?

If it was upper teeth I'd say it could be sinus issues. Maybe grinding your teeth?

I had what felt like deep bone pain in my jaw. Went to dentist , and all checked out, no obvious problem found on exam or X-rays. I got a night guard( not sure what it is called) because I was clenching my teeth at night. Not grinding, just biting down.
The pain went away. If I go without ithe guard for a week or two , the pain comes back.
So yes, I think it could be the teeth grinding causing your pain.

Does hurt when you eat or drink something cold or hot?

I know that I clench my teeth at times, and I can get some pretty strong pain in upper and lower teeth from that.
And, for the first time, this year I have experienced similar pain from my sinus issues, but this was excruciating and much longer lasting than the pain from clenching. I had no idea that could happen, or be so bad, but my dentist's office said they get a lot of calls for pain related to allergy/sinus issues, especially this time of year.
