Here’s a repost of my experience:

Tooth pain is a well documented symptom of GCA. I experienced this 4 months before I developed other symptoms of GCA. It caused part of my molar that had been extensively repaired in the past to break off. A crown was placed successfully but the tooth pain improved only slightly. Neither I, nor the dentist, recognized this as a possible symptom of GCA. I was on a low dose of prednisone at the time, about 3 mg, for PMR, which had been started at 20 mg about 15 months earlier. I developed classical GCA symptoms 4 months later. The tooth pain and GCA symptoms responded completely within about 12 hours to 60 mg of prednisone. I consider myself lucky not to have sustained loss of vision.
