There is a weird pain at the upper inside of my mouth. The location is near the upper left wisdom tooth. The pain is weird because it is not there when I closed my mouth. It only appears when I open my mouth to talk. Swallowing does NOT invoke the pain too. I have experience of tooth pain in the past but it does not like it because tooth pain is like impulse and it remains there no matter what you do or not do. This pain bother me mostly when I am talking. Also, the pain-est moment is when I start to talk. It diminish when I keep on talking. I dont have the courage to see a dentist because I have EXTREME gag reflect. I gag when I brush myself and I cant withstand the wooden stick to press my tougue when I see visit physicians. I inspected my mouth a noticed no readiness there. Any advice?
Hello, The pain can be due to any nerve related problems. As the pain is only on speaking therefore it points more towards nerve related problem. So my suggestion is to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated. An x-ray has to be done to rule out the exact cause of the problem. Once the problem is confirmed, then only appropriate treatment can be advised. For now, you can take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
