Can a tooth ache/bad tooth cause head & eye aches?

I am having a tooth pulled today because its been giving me problems when I eat and when im about ot go to sleep, I also started having head aches and my eye on the right side (the side the toothe is on) Was sort of hurting





I thought it was from wearing my contact lenses but i stopped wearing them to let my eye heal and its still a little sore. Could this be from the pain in my mouth?

Can a tooth ache/bad tooth cause head %26amp; eye aches?
I'm glad you're getting the tooth pulled today. A bad tooth can cause a lot more than headaches or eye pain. Research has shown that it can lead to heart attack and stroke as well as headache/eye pain. I had a systemic infection as a result of seven infected teeth and the best decision I could have made was to get them out.
Reply:yes it definately can...
Reply:it most likely is as the tooth is probably infected
Reply:Yes, it could be infected tooth.
Reply:Absolutely- the bad tooth can be causing the pain and aches in your head and eyes. If you do'nt find remedy after this procedure, you probably should consult your doctor or see a specialist.
Reply:yes
Reply:I beleive it's all connected. I have gotten headaches when I have a tooth ache. I've even gotten ear aches when I get a tooth ache that's why I say it's all connected.
Reply:Yes, absolutely.
Reply:yes can
Reply:Yes dont worry its the nerve endings in your mouth what are signaling to you that your tooth is in need of attention,


Dont worry as i get it,
Reply:Yes. A toothache can effect the nerves in your head causing ocular migraines.
Reply:YES, my dentist told me. I was having sinus problems which made my top teeth ache..weird but its possible....
Reply:Tooth aches are usually related to some form of tooth/root or gum infection, and an infection anywhere in the head cause a world of problems, eye pain and head aches are actually minor compared to some people's issues.





I had a tooth ache that literally knocked me unconcious with pain. The absessed tooth had to be extracted, but the infection still hung around for a couple more months.





See a dentist, and an eye nose throat specialist, and give each of them the other's business card so they may compare notes and better decide a treatment
Reply:yea because my mom got an infection in her tooth and she had really bad toothaches and headaches @ the same time + her eyes and ears also hurt, so that could be it. ♥ i hope this answers your question and i hope you feel better! =)
Reply:I'm sure it can...I have had tooth aches that practically paralyzed my whole face. Once I had a tooth ache on my right bottom molar that affected my right arm....scary. Best Wishes!
