Jaw Pain: 6 ways of relieving the pain

February 12, 2015General dentistry, Oral Health, Penrith Dentist Sydney, Preventive DentistryBy Dr Frank Meshkani (dentist)

There are number of reasons why you happened to experience jaw pain. Some of these are due to arthritis, fractures, misalignments, dental abscess and TMD or temporomandibular joint disorder. Jaw pain may occur unexpectedly or develop over time. It symptoms may include dizziness, ear pain, fever, headache, tooth pain, tongue numbness and a lot more.

Severe cases of jaw pain may include symptoms such as chest pain, breathing complication, difficulty in swallowing, locked jaw, nausea and vomiting. Sometimes, pain in the jaw is triggered by some dental conditions such as dry socket, impacted tooth and tooth decay. In other cases, jaw pain could be a symptom of life-threatening health conditions like heart attack and oral cancer.

Talk to your dentist or physician when you notice the early signs of jaw pain. Consult your dental care partners here at Penrith Dental Clinic and we can help you to be well informed about the condition. Through performing a thorough exam, we can find the best treatment for you so you can have better oral health for life.

Finding a Dental Clinic whom i can trust my son's (3yrs & 7mos) first dental check-up worries me as i don't want my son to get traumatize. After researching and reading online reviews i ended up making appointment with Penrith Dental Clinic and the experience is awesome. The customer service is brilliant and the Dentist (Dr. Soltani) is very gentle and kind. My son enjoyed his treatment. I can't recommend this clinic enough. Thank you for the hassle free experience👍👏*****29/5/2021We are one of satisfied client of this dental clinic for quite some time now and my son loved it, he is always excited for his appointment.This visit we were referred to a different dentist (Dr. Mina) a bit hesitant at first how my son react but Dr. Mina is so brilliant and great that my child enjoyed his treatment a lot. The beautiful lady in the reception is so warm and welcoming that my son got entertained while waiting for his schedule. The service that this clinic and people working here is amazing and beyond what you expect. Thank you for what you did during my son's treatment, I really, really appreciate it. Highly recommended! 😍🤩👍*****26 & 27 April 2024 UpdateAs always this clinic (Dental Hygenist and Staff) never disappoint us. I am always thankful for taking care of my son (Louie) dental needs. Booking an appointment is always smooth and easy (Renae) from reception is exceptional. The new dental hygenist (Dr. Zaman) is so gentle, lovely and detailed. If you have questions Dr. Soltani is always of accesstance and you can decide an agreeable plan. Always recommend this dental clinic!❤️😀👍PS. My son felt so special after he recieve the crochet toy😍😍😍

Friendly, informative and professional.It was my first experience of needing a tooth filling. To reduce the anxiety of the experience Dr Soltani provided comfort in explaining the steps through the process. There was no pain during the procedure and something that felt really scary ended up being a simple process. That’s how you know you have found a great dentist!The only helpful feedback to provide would be to provide mouth wash at the end of the process instead of water. Overall a great experience.

Sabrina is incredible. She is kind, gentle, patient and very empathetic. I have a severe phobia of the dentist and Sabrina made me feel the most comfortable my phobia would allow me to. She is very skilled and thorough. I thought i couldn’t get through any of it without twilight sedation but in the end I was able to because of Sabrina. Highly recommend.

I’ve had terrible trouble with my teeth over the years, and I could not seem to get on top of it till the team at Penrith Dental managed to stabilise my tooth decay with a combination of repair and giving me the best advice and tools to prevent more holes. On top of that Ronita on the desk is very friendly and always makes me laugh, which helps with my dentist related anxiety. Sabrina is currently looking after my teeth and she is great. Always explaining before doing anything and is very careful to make sure you are not in too much discomfort. She is also meticulous in getting the fillings right and does not rush which is great, since I’ve had a lot of cavities develop under fillings in the past. It really feels like she cares about my teeth and wellbeing quite as much as I do. 🙂

I recently had the opportunity to visit Dr. Soltani for a comprehensive dental check-up and examination.

Dr.Soltani exhibited a remarkable level of thoroughness, ensuring no detail was overlooked during the examination. His expertise not only instilled confidence but also led to a precise and accurate diagnosis, setting a high standard for dental care. I highly recommend Dr.Soltani for his professionalism, expertise, and commitment to providing outstanding dental service.

This was the first time our little girl has been to the dentist. She was very nervous and anxious. From our very first contact at the front desk, the receptionist was very reassuring and tried to ease her fears about seeing Dr Azadi. Dr Azadi and her assistant were very attentive to her and did not just rush through the procedure. They took time to explain things to me, and then to my daughter so that she knew exactly what they were going to do and reassured her that they would stop whenever she needed a break. They were also very encouraging and reassuring throughout the entire procedure. By the end, my daughter was happy and she was even eager to go back for her follow up appointment. I highly recommend Penrith Dental Clinic!

I'm delighted to share my positive experience with Dr. Kia in addressing my kid's mouth extension concern. From the moment we walked into the clinic, we were met with warmth and professionalism. Dr.Kia and the entire team exhibited a high level of expertise and compassion throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain the diagnosis and treatment options in a way that was easy to understand and put our concerns at ease.The care my kid received was exceptional. Dr.Kia was not only skilled in performing the necessary procedure but also incredibly patient and reassuring, making my kid feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process.The follow-up appointments were well-organized by the kind lady at the reception who is very friendly and accomodating, ensuring our appointments are scheduled conviniently. I recommend this clinic services to anyone seeking good medical care and compassionate approach to pediatric dental issues.

Dr Sabrina is patient, understanding and ensures that you are comfortable every step of the experience. I've had a variety of dentists before and she is the best I've had as she actively communicates what she is doing while working on your teeth, pausing now and then to check you're okay and is always patient with answering questions. While some other dentists may criticise and frown upon the state of your teeth, she always encourages and provides advice to make oral hygiene less of a chore as well less of a nerve-wracking experience when visiting for a checkup. I highly recommend booking with Dr Sabrina, especially if you are anxious about dentist visits!

I just wanna say a huge thanks to Dr soltani and the receptionist ( sorry I didn't get your name). Not only did you both have an understanding of what I wanted, you both educated me on how to look after my teeth and helped booked another appointment. The tooth extraction went a breeze with full communication, making me want to come in for a clean and future plans . Also goto point out, it is so much cheaper then nz... ALOT cheaper... thanks again will definitely be me again
