Burning sensitivity
I have burning sensitivity from 6 months in tooth, that tooth root gum ( left central incisor). Sometime burning sensation in left nose also.
I visited 2 dentist and did opg and they are saying no Issue found in that tooth.
I have a root canal tooth left first molar it has intermittent pain. They are saying this tooth don't have any abnormalities.
I'm very confused on this - please guide me
Hello!
Your symptoms of burning sensitivity and intermittent pain may stem from complex causes that aren't always evident in standard OPG. Hereâs a structured approach:
Next Steps
Advanced Imaging: Consider a CBCT scan or IOPA for a detailed 3D view to detect micro-fractures or hidden infections. ENT Consultation: Since you have nasal involvement, rule out sinusitis or neuralgia. Oral Medicine Specialist: For potential nerve-related conditions like trigeminal neuralgia. Evaluate the Root Canal Tooth: Check for any missed canals or secondary infections in the treated tooth.
Health Tips
Practice good oral hygiene to prevent further irritation. Avoid extreme temperatures and acidic foods. Manage stress, as it can exacerbate nerve-related issues.

Hello! Since your symptoms have persisted for over 6 months and involve radiating sensation toward the nose, I recommend getting an IOPA (intraoral periapical radiograph) or a CBCT scan of the affected region. These are more detailed than an OPG and can help detect small periapical lesions, root fractures, or sinus involvement that may not show up on a regular OPG. Also consider visiting an oral medicine specialist or ENT for further evaluation to rule out neuralgia or sinus-related causes.
