When these sinuses become inflamed or infected, the pressure can press on nerves that connect to multiple teeth at once. The result is pain that feels like it is coming from your teeth, even though the teeth themselves may be healthy.<\/p><p>It can also work the other way. Because these roots sit so close to the sinus, an infected upper back tooth, even one that has already had a root canal, can spread infection into the sinus. This kind of sinus infection often causes little or no tooth pain, so recurring sinus symptoms on one side, or symptoms that don\u2019t clear up with sinus treatment, are a reason to have your upper teeth checked.<\/p><p>This overlap is why searches for \u201csinus infection vs. toothache\u201d are so common, and why self-diagnosis is tricky. The self-checks below can point you in the right direction, but only an exam can confirm the cause.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div

If a decongestant or steam inhalation noticeably reduces your tooth pain within a few hours, that points toward sinus-related pain, but it isn\u2019t proof: some sinus medicines also contain a pain reliever, such as ibuprofen, that can dull a toothache too. And if a decongestant doesn\u2019t help, that doesn\u2019t rule out your sinuses; the FDA has proposed removing oral phenylephrine, a common decongestant ingredient, because its review found it doesn\u2019t relieve congestion.<\/p><p>This is not a cure, but it can be a helpful clue. If you try a decongestant, check the label first. Ask a doctor before using one if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, thyroid disease, diabetes, or trouble urinating due to an enlarged prostate, and don\u2019t use one if you take a prescription MAOI (certain medicines for depression or Parkinson\u2019s disease) or stopped one in the past 2 weeks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e4e4720 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e4e4720\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Who Should You Call First?

See a doctor if your symptoms are severe (such as a severe headache or facial pain), get worse after improving, last more than 10 days without getting better, or come with a fever that lasts more than 3\u20134 days. Also see a doctor if you\u2019ve had multiple sinus infections in the past year.<br \/><strong><br \/>If you are unsure:<br \/><\/strong><\/p><p>Seeing a dentist first is often the safest move. A dentist can examine your teeth and take X-rays (or a 3D scan if needed) to check for decay or infection, and confirm whether your teeth are actually the source of the pain. This prevents dangerous delays if a hidden dental infection is present.<\/p><p>Until you\u2019re seen, an over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, if it\u2019s safe for you and taken as the label directs, may ease the pain. If you\u2019re also taking a sinus or cold medicine, check its label so you don\u2019t take the same pain reliever twice.
