What Causes Severe Tooth Pain And Tenderness At The Roof Of Mouth?

Here's my issue. my teeth hurt, roof of mouth is tender; gums don't bleed. Teeth are brushed daily; twice. I do grind my teeth; wear a guard but that doesn't seem to be helping and sometimes eating is becoming a bit painful; teeth ache in various places in my mouth. Just looking for direction. Of course I will be going to a dentist soon.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain teeth ache, tenderness in the roof of the mouth and having a habit of Bruxism indicates that the symptoms are due to Bruxism only and the pain in teeth can be due to attretion of teeth leading to pain and discomfort..
I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like full mouth x ray can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..
As of now you can gargle with a numbing mouthwash to relieve pain in the roof of mouth, you can take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen..
You can also apply desensitizing tooth paste over the teeth..
Keep stress low as it also leads to clenching of teeth..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
