Hi @sueber Fellow mentor @hopeful33250 brought me into the conversation about your tooth/gum pain. My background is in dentistry so maybe together we can figure out what’s going on in your mouth.

I’m going to toss out a bunch of questions for you in hopes of narrowing this down. ☺️
When are you experience the dental pain is it localized to one area or an entire side of your mouth? Do you feel a sharp sensitivity to hot or cold? Or sweets?
Is this pain in your upper or lower jaw? Does it happen a little while after eating? Are you waking up with the pain? Can you notice any puffiness or swelling around the area that’s sensative?

Thank you for your kind offer. I woke up about 2 AM with pain in upper and lower teeth: front and right side. I took 2 ibuprofen and it stopped. It has not reoccurred so I believe I must have been clenching my jaw while sleeping. I am thankful that this has not happened again.
