Why are the bones in my face hurting?

Question

The bones on the right side of my face were hurting a few weeks ago. Mainly my eyebrow bone & cheek bone. i woke up this morning & they are hurting again. It is actually down to the top of my jaw. ANY idea what this could possible be?

I did go to the dentist a little over a year ago & he really screwed up my bite but this pain just recently started. I have no idea whats going on!

Answer 1

maybe you grind your teeth in your sleep and just don't know it.

are you more stressed out than usual?

Answer 2

~ Hi ~ ! I'm so sorry you're having so much pain. From what you describe it almost does sound like your pain could be related to TMJ:

My son and I are both TMJ sufferers and both of us suffered from face pain and pain that went into the jaw and for both of us it was primarily affected  one side of our faces. When our dentist found that both my son and I grind our teeth on one side of our mouths and we had to be fitted with special mouth pieces that stop us from grinding our teeth at night. I have noticed a big difference in the face pain and my dentist has noticed a difference in my teeth!

This is just one possibility (especially when you mentioned the issue with your bit), it could have caused issues with grinding your teeth you hadn't had before.

I hope you get answers and relief soon. =)
