Can toothache cause jaw pain?

Dentist answers

Yes, a severe toothache can cause jaw pain, especially if the affected tooth is infected or if you have been clenching your jaw due to the pain. In some cases, what starts as a toothache can radiate into the jaw, making prompt diagnosis and treatment at Royal Dental Whittier crucial for alleviating both the tooth and jaw pain.
