Well, perhaps you should! <strong>Tooth infections, also known as abscesses, can cause sinus infections<\/strong>. And, conversely, a sinus infection <em>can<\/em> make you feel like you have a toothache!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What Are Sinuses And How Can They Become Infected?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Your sinuses are a <strong>connected system of hollow chambers in your skull<\/strong>. Air passes through them to get warm and moist before moving to your lungs. Usually your body is able to keep your sinuses clean but <strong>sometimes bacteria can grow out of control and cause an infection<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Only The Maxillary Sinuses Can Be Infected By A Tooth<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>While you have several sinuses, only one set is affected by tooth-related issues. The maxillary sinuses are on either side of your nose and come in close contact with the roots of your upper teeth. Because the two are so close, <strong>abscesses from the upper back teeth can make their way into your maxillary sinus and cause an infection<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Contact Us At The First Sign Of Pain<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Generally, tooth abscesses are painful. However, once in a while there\u2019s no discomfort at all\u2014it depends on the location of the infection.
