signs and symptoms
editJmh649 thanks for help. When Lesion and I did this, we had a discussion about S/S. The problem was that there are so many causes for tooth ache (and the S/S so specific to each) we decided to include them with each cause. At first we would list the causes, then a seperate section for S/S but it became too disjointed. OK to leave that way, or does it need to be reformatted prior to FA submission? Personally, I think this makes it more readable. Ian Furst (talk) 03:43, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
Pain from toothache and brain scan
editToothache pain can be one of the worst pains and I wonder if anyone has studied the brain with today's modern fMRI and PET scan technology to see what brain areas are activated? Pain is a chemical/electrical signal from the nerve?--Mark v1.0 (talk) 15:55, 3 December 2016 (UTC) Closest thing I found https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4348014/--Mark v1.0 (talk) 16:06, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
Toothache unique in its presentation
editKDS4444 reverted this edit on grounds of duplication and it being supported by a poor source (also the source is wrong, toothache is not a unique presentation of this phenomenon, see compartment syndrome, intracranial hypertension to name 2 other examples).
