Tooth Aches With No Teeth Posted: 04-13-07 15:43pm
I have dentures and no teeth but lately I
have terrible "toothaches."
I've been told two separate possible
causes. One is that it is just like an
amputee who still has the sensation of
pain but the limb is gone. And two, that
it is a sign of cardiac problems. The
pain has been on the left side on top and
bottom. It is as if I bit into ice cream
and "froze" a sensitive tooth. Any input
is appreciated as I have no insurance.

Hi, it does sound to me like nerve damage,
or something dealing with your nerve
ending. You stated this happens when
eating ice cream or something cold. I
would say, if you were to be experiencing
this pain all the time, you would most
definately need to see a physican. But
only when its somehting cold or maybe hot,
a change in temps?
