Re: why sound from scratched metal causes pain to ones teeth

Hay Gaidian,

Actually there is no relation between sound and pain of tooth. but there are 
many questions to be asked then ... 

- Is that the only time you feel pain with the sound? Try a different 
scratching sound in particular.

- Is the tooth restored in which you had pain ?

- Material used for the restoration of the tooth ? Is it Amalgam or a
composite or any other metal.

- Do you have any appliance in your mouth ? (i.e Braces, Bands or any 
functional appliance) ?

- What was in your mouth the time you had pain in tooth? ( any metal 
object?)


And if you see no problem with anything mentioned above you should visit 
your dentist and let him know everything. Perhaps a clinical examination 
will be of some help.

Thank you.
