sore teeth with a cold

[missmoore]

When I get a cold (like i have right now...) my upper teeth hurt. Is this normal?

[crisgal]

me too, missmoore. I always presumed my joints were a bit inflamed, including my jaw. It does feel like my teeth though.
sorry, can't answer your question!

It could be a result of sinusitis caused by the 'cold virus'.
The main nerve trunk that supplies the mucosal lining of the antrum/sinus also supplies the upper teeth with sensation.

blocked sinuses! i always get this! dab some albas oil in line with the bridge of ur nose, but next to ur ears (if that makes sense) dont put too much on cos itll sting ur eyes n this shud help, sudafed is very good as well!
