An infection or inflammation is causing the lining to swell,\nblocking the drainage. The sinus gets clogged with mucus trapping bacteria that\ncontinue to multiply inside and results in sinus congestion.<br>\n<br>\nExperiencing a toothache in the upper teeth is fairly common when having sinus\nproblems, although there may not actually be a problem with any tooth. We refer\nto this throbbing toothache as a sinus toothache. Maxillary sinuses, which are\nlocated inside each cheekbone above the upper jaws, are mostly related to the\nsinus toothaches. The roots of the upper molar teeth in the back of the jaw may\nbe too close to the floor of the maxillary sinus cavity. In some cases they may\neven extend into the sinus cavity.&nbsp;<br>\n<br>\nWhat causes a sinus infection toothache?<br>\n<br>\nInflammation of the mucous lining of the sinuses can be caused by several\nconditions but the most common causes of a sinus infection toothache are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>the common cold<\/li><li>allergies<\/li><li>pollutants and tissue irritants<\/li><li>A quick test: jump on your feet and if there is a sinus infection, the      sudden movement of fluid in the maxillary cavity will cause a throbbing pain in one or more upper teeth.<\/li><li>Another test: sit down with your knees apart, bend over and put your heat between your knees, stay in this pose for several seconds. If you get headache, there is a great deal of congestion and sinus infection.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\nUnfortunately, wrong diagnosing a sinus toothache as a tooth problem, will not\nonly lead to an unnecessary dental treatment but will also delay the treatment\nof the sinus inflammation and allow it to become a serious and hard to cure\ncase of sinusitis.&nbsp;<br>\n<br>\nThe only way to treat a sinus toothache is to fight the sinus infection and\nrelieve the pressure. When the infection is treated and the accumulated fluids\nare drained out of the sinus cavities, the pain should subside and disappear\nwithout requiring further treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some remedies such as steam inhalation and nasal sprays that\nkeep the nasal tissues moist and allow the sinus to easily drain through the\nnose can relieve the pressure in the nasal passages and help ease the pain in\nyour teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the other symptoms of the sinus problem subside but the\ntoothache continues, there was probably a dental problem simultaneously with\nthe sinusitis, and you have to visit your dentist for dental treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sinuses are air filled cavities inside the human skull; a healthy sinus is filled with air and a small amount of thin mucus that drains away continuously.
