Could Cervical Spondylosis Be A Cause Of Tooth Pain In The Jaw?
Could cervical spondylosis be a cause of tooth pain in the jaw? I saw an endodontist and he could see no reason for the pain I have in #20 tooth lower jaw that has a valid root canal. He showed me a diagram of the nerve root in the jaw and thought possibly the pain came from there? Thanks, Kathleen Andersen
