Question: could the root of a tooth growing into a maxilliary sinus cause severe headaches, pressure and sinus pain?

Thanks.

Obviously will make appt if this is a possibility.

Thanks. We have seaching for a cause for a while - have had MRI scan, CT scan, medication, the only thing found is this root. Have had several ear, sinus and salivary gland infections on the same side plus severe headaches. Getting a bit desperate to find a cause.

Sinus pain & pain in the upper molars are closely related. Have you had any dental cause (decay, infection, dead tooth etc) excluded? Might be a good idea to see your dentist.

Symptoms are usually pain on tapping the teeth, toothpain when the head is tilted forward, for me, if I have sinusitis even walking makes my teeth hurt!
