Tooth loss and mouth symptoms - uvulitis?!?

Hi, my second lower molar fell down, remaining only the root of the tooth. I immediately felt a sensation on the uvula, like something was stuck in there, or a gag reflex felling. But I notice that the tooth was on my tongue, Im not sure if I recover every piece of it, plus the composite.

This was a tooth very short and had a root canal done, 10 years ago. This feeling in the uvula never went away, but it was mild. It was like a gag sensation. It feels like the uvula is longer and it is touching my tongue.

After this I replaced the missing tooth with composite, but this sensation was still here.

After 3 weeks, I started looking for answers. I went to the doctor to know if it was a DST, or a bacterial infection if some sort. He gave me antibiotics, which I took, but never got better.

After this, it sometimes I felt like I was eating my uvula. I ask? Could this lowering of the uvula have to do with the neck muscles adjusting and compressing the nerves of the uvula? I also feel a change in taste and like the roof top of my mouth is made of cork.

Is it normal to feel your úvula? Could some small piece of the tooth be still stacked, after a month? Unfortunately I spend hours watching úvula videos, where people complain about the same thing.

After this i start having this dry mouth cough, and now I am having difficulty to swallow. I have this globus sensation, they is making me crazy. I cannot Bend my head forward, and sleep with my head lied down. I also developed a change in taste.

Summing it up, I went from a mild sensation in my úvula to much worse, after I started looking for answers, and going to doctors to find answers at a physical level.

I have an history of TMS manifestations, which I overcome in the past, with all kind of symptoms. I literally fell weird sensation all over my body in the past, including a similar one to this, but related to heart palpitations.

I'm quite sure this is TMS, but the problem is that it all started with a clear cause, my tooth loss. I now that the cranial nerves are all connected. The trigeminal nerve enervates the teeth and the uvula.

Also, loosing my teeth is creating a lot of emotional stress for me. I'm scared because I don't have the means to put implants. One strange, thing is that I felt the same sensation, when I was trying to stop crying in front of my kid.

I'm eager to hear what you think.

Thanks a lot for your help.

 

Well, since nobody reply, can at least someone comment on my theory? Im always doing an weightlifting exercise, at home, that puts a lot of force/sress in the neck. Also, I have increased it in the last month. When the tooth felt I was clining it, and I always clean my theets bending forward. Also, I did the same workout exercice minutes early. Could this exercise compressed the nerves that goes to the throat And control swollowing, minutes later? Because after the tooth fell down I bend it backwards, and maybe what I felt was the compression of the nerve that controls de uvula. Maybe it was a coincidence, and both TMS, and the continuation of the exercice was just exarcerbating everything. Thanks

Oh my god, I remember vividly now. I already felt this. I was then diagnosed with a thyroiditis. I had the same sensation in my throat. I've been through a lot of stress lately....

 

Thanks for replying. The medical professional says I have nothing, but I still feel the lump on the back of my throat (I still haven't done any blood test, namely to my thyroid). They only say it's impossible that my tooth falling down is related with my symptoms, or that the tooth restoration is in my throat, or that causes nerve damage or desalinment on my moth, etc.

I remembered I felt this sensation before, when I had a thyroid dysfunction. I felt it for a long time. The problem here is the coincidence, of the falling of my tooth and the start of the symptoms. I also felt this sensation before when I eat certain foods, like some sort of allergy.

My question is, is thyroid dysfunction stress related? I also believe Dr Sarno says allergies are TMS equivalents.

My only concern here is nerve damage from a tooth falling, or maybe it releases some allergens toxic elements that were under the tooth restoration, and we're drained to my mouth. Could this be possible? Do allergies manifest that fast in the body? Either the uvula is swollen , or the tongue enlarged. I remembered also the burning mouth syndrome.

What I want you guys to help me with, is to figure it out if the toot falling out, and the onset of my symptoms was just a coincidence, based on what I told you. I'm a very stressful guy, when I eat fish I always feel a spine on my throat. I'm deeply afraid that it hsappens. On the other hand, the loss of tooth also provoque me a feeling of sadness, that reflected on my thyroid. My quest to figure out what was wrong with me lead me to the enlarged thyroid, Bad once I realised that my choking sensation is far better, because I reduce stress, thus, the thyroid inflammation.

Now there is only the mild sensation, that increases with stress, but it is still uncomfortable

Thanks
