Jaw pain may be accompanied by shooting pain in the jaws or teeth, headache, earache, neck pain, or muscle soreness. Untreated jaw pain due to bruxism may result in premature wear and tear on the teeth. The dentist must determine the reason for the jaw pain before recommending a course of action. A thorough examination that includes x-rays can help determine the cause. For more information, visit at 247emergencydentalclinic.com.
