    Here is my mothers problem. She has a shooting pain towards her left lower jaw, somewhere inside the teeth. She is unable to chew from that side and therefore she left that side completely isolated. Instead she utilizes the right part of her mouth. What could be the problem?

    Lesa,

    Have you checked wether she has a decay ? I mean, the explaination of the problem is vague, so, once it is clinically examined or atleast explained, it is hard to say what the problem is..

    She rather go to the Dentist and check instead of not using one side of the mouth. Because, this could also lead to occulcal / biting problems eventually..

    Raji,

    Has he visited a Dentist ever for this problem ? If he hasnt, he must soon. We need to know " what " kind of discoularation it is.. Maybe just stains or tartar.. Once that is confirmed.. I can tell you the best treatment..

    Because both the above mentioned have different treatments and the severity varies too..

    Priya,

    The tooth must be having weakened bones or gums.. You wil have to get it checked. Maybe for now, just check what is wrong with the tooth in Dubai. Depending on what the Dentist tells you, you could decide on the treatment.

    Till then do not bite on that tooth. Do not put any strain. Basically, the root could have weakened because of tartar formation which could ahve lead to weak gums and bones eventually.
