About
Facial pain covers a broad range of conditions including temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ/TMD), trigeminal neuralgia, dental pain, sinusitis, and cluster headaches. The face is richly innervated, making pain both common and challenging to diagnose. Identifying the specific cause is essential for appropriate treatment.
What it feels like
Pain in the jaw, cheek, teeth, or around the eye

Pain triggered by chewing, talking, or facial movement
Headache associated with facial pain
Tenderness in the jaw muscles or temple
When to get help
See a doctor or dentist for significant jaw pain, clicking with restricted opening, or dental pain. Seek urgent assessment for sudden severe facial pain, pain with vision changes or eye redness, or any facial pain that develops after trauma.
