Have you experienced lingering tooth or jaw pain lately? It can be difficult to ignore the discomfort, especially if it’s causing difficulty eating, speaking, or sleeping. Pain is often the sign of an underlying issue that won’t resolve itself without help. Our team specializes in diagnosing and relieving these pains so that you can get back to living your life. Whether you’re dealing with jaw pain on one side or widespread tooth discomfort, we are here to help.
Tooth pain is a common complaint among adults in Missouri City, TX. There are many possible causes of tooth pain that range from minor to more serious issues. Tooth decay can cause pain when bacteria penetrate the enamel and dental pulp layers of the tooth, causing infection and inflammation. Habitual grinding and clenching of teeth can also wear down the protective enamel layer and cause pain. Tooth infection is another common cause of pain, especially if the infection has spread to the pulp or root canal. Lastly, wisdom teeth issues are common causes of tooth pain due to their late eruption in adulthood and difficulty in coming through the gums.
Jaw pain can be caused by a variety of factors, including TMJ disorder, gum disease, physical trauma, and more. Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder is a common cause of jaw pain, which occurs when the muscles around your jaw become inflamed from overuse or stress. Gum disease is another possible cause of jaw pain as the bacteria and inflammation in your gums can spread to other parts of your mouth. Physical trauma, such as a broken bone or sports-related injury, can also cause jaw pain. Jaw pain on one side is often caused by TMJ disorder, but it could be due to any of the illnesses mentioned above.
We empathize with how uncomfortable these pains can be, so our team will work to find the cause of your discomfort and provide fast relief. We’ll perform a comprehensive examination using advanced digital imaging technology to properly diagnose your condition. Once your condition is identified, we can provide restorative treatments such as fillings, crowns, dental implants, and more. In certain cases where the pain is due to grinding or clenching of teeth, our dentists may also recommend a custom-made dental night guard to prevent further damage and relieve discomfort.

Wow highly recommend I meet Dr. Dinh in a previous dental office, and what can I say I have always been afraid of the dentist with the numbing process. How ever Dr. Dinh has made me feel so comfortable that I didn’t even feel when he numb me he did 5 fillings and I didn’t feel a dam thing. He sure knows what he is doing 100% recommended I sure will be recommending my family and friends to him.
