Can toothache be related to a person’s psycho-emotional state? The article describes how emotional experiences and pain in the teeth (as well as other organs) are related to each other. You will learn about how a person’s character indirectly affects the condition of his jaw and what are the metaphysical causes of toothache.
People have long associated their illnesses with various external factors that are not always dependent on them. It was once believed that a curse pronounced out loud could cause a terrible illness (or even kill someone), and among the pagans, disloyalty to God promised misfortune and trouble to the “apostate” and his family.
Today, little has changed - people are still susceptible to the influence of psychosomatic factors. Our character and worldview significantly affect our overall well-being. Problems of a psychological nature can cause tangible physical symptoms, such as sudden malaise, weakness, pain in the head, heart and... even teeth.
Toothache largely depends on a person’s mental health
GENERAL DENTAL PROBLEMS
Liz Burbo in her book “Your Body Says “Love Yourself!”” writes about possible metaphysical causes of dental problems:
Emotional blockage.
Since teeth serve to chew food, they are associated with the way a person chews new ideas or circumstances in order to better assimilate them. Teeth usually hurt in indecisive people who do not know how to analyze life situations.
Teeth are also needed for biting, so dental problems can mean that a person feels helpless and is not able to bite someone in real life or stand up for himself.
Below I present an excerpt from the results of many years of research by the French dental surgeon Ms. Michelle Caff-fen:
EIGHT RIGHT TEETH OF THE UPPER JAW are associated with a person’s desire to manifest, express himself in the outside world; if there is a problem with one of these teeth, it means that the person is having difficulty finding his place in the outside world.
THE EIGHT LEFT TEETH OF THE UPPER JAW are connected with the inner world of a person, with his desire to express his feelings, emotions and desires; a problem with one of these teeth indicates that it is difficult for a person to reveal his personality, to become himself.
EIGHT RIGHT TEETH ON THE LOWER JAW are associated with the ability to clarify, specify; A problem with one of these teeth indicates that a person is having difficulty giving his life a certain direction.
EIGHT LEFT TEETH IN THE LOWER JAW are associated with sensitivity; a problem with one of these teeth indicates that the person is not at peace with his family on an emotional level. The signs mentioned above also include the uneven arrangement of the corresponding teeth.
Mental blockage.
Since the right side of your body directly reflects your relationship with your father, problems with teeth located on the right indicate that there is still some kind of conflict in this relationship. This means that you should change your attitude towards your father and show greater tolerance. If the teeth on the left side hurt, you must improve your relationship with your mother.
In addition, the FOUR UPPER INCISOR (front teeth) represent the place you want to occupy next to your parents, and the FOUR LOWER INCISOR represents the place your parents occupy.
Any problem with your teeth means that it’s time for you to take action and specify your desires. Learn to objectively perceive life situations. Let other people help you with this if you see such a need. Instead of having a grudge against someone, take care of your own desires. Reconnect with your power and allow yourself to protect yourself.
If you suffer from WEAR - that is, if the enamel is gradually worn away from them - this means that you are allowing your loved ones to take advantage of you. As a rule, the one who most often allows himself to be used is the one who actively criticizes internally, but does not show himself in any way externally. Such a person always wants others to change. If you don't want your loved ones to continue to use you, try to feel true, unconditional love for them.
Bodo Baginski and Sharamon Shalila in their book “Reiki - the Universal Energy of Life” write about possible metaphysical causes of dental problems.
Problems in the mouth area show you that you are to a certain extent unable to accept new impressions and ideas. You are guided by ossified views and adhere to old patterns of behavior. Say "Welcome" to new ideas and concepts! and accept new things readily. Be fluid and open, then your mouth will again become capable of receiving food.
With our teeth we bite. They are an expression of whether we can achieve our goal, energetically get down to business and overcome difficulties, whether we can show our teeth to someone, snarl. Bad teeth are a sign that you do not demonstrate your punching power well and cannot show your aggressiveness to the outside world, but you don’t see it or don’t want to notice it. What is it that is so hard for you to get your teeth into?
Often you cannot decide to do something and suppress your inner aggression out of fear that you will lose the love and recognition of others if you allow your aggressiveness or desires to manifest themselves. Be completely yourself, no matter what others expect of you. Accept your aggressiveness, let it show, don't judge yourself for it. This way, aggression can be transformed into a positive creative force that will help you achieve your goals with ease. Be honest with yourself.
Dr. Oleg G. Torsunov, in his book “The Connection of Diseases with Character,” writes about possible metaphysical causes of dental problems.
The skeletal system and teeth receive strength from faith, firmness and cleanliness in a person’s desires, will, speech, emotions, thoughts and actions.
Faith strengthens the immune system of the skeletal system; it also gives enthusiasm and joy in work, which leads to an increase in the strength of the skeletal system and teeth.
— Mistrust reduces immunity. As well as the strength of the skeletal system and teeth.
— Unbelief causes suppression of the immune system and causes infectious processes in the skeletal system and teeth.
Strength of character gives strength and elasticity to the skeletal system and teeth.
— Weakness of character leads to a decrease in resistance and an increase in softness of the skeletal system and teeth.
-Hardness causes increased fragility of bones and teeth.
Cleanliness in character leads to a decrease in inflammatory processes in bone tissue.
-Sloppyness increases inflammation in bone tissue.
-Straininess causes increased sensitivity of bone tissue and teeth.
There is external and internal purity.
- External cleanliness means cleanliness of the body.
- Inner purity is purity of actions.
Both types of purity depend on purity of mind and purity of mind.
There is a dirty, defiled mind, and a pure mind. A pure mind always has pure, sublime thoughts. We can check whether our mind is pure or not. What are we thinking about, such a mind. If the mind is dirty, then there is a high probability of developing inflammatory processes in the bone tissue and oral cavity.
If a person’s thoughts and will are not strong and persistent, then the teeth are not strong either, they quickly begin to crumble and fall out. And there are overly rigid and categorical thoughts, then the teeth will also suffer on the left. Quality: persistence, firmness, confidence. Inconsistency, indecision, uncertainty, desecration, uncleanliness, injustice, rigidity, aggressiveness in thoughts cause dental suffering on this side.
If a person loses a tooth , it means that he did not act as he should. Excessively violent activities lead to the fact that a person loses his teeth. You see that everything is natural and there are no accidents.
Louise Hay in her book “Heal Yourself” points out the main negative attitudes (leading to illness) and harmonizing thoughts (leading to healing) associated with the occurrence and healing of dental problems.
Prolonged indecision. Inability to recognize ideas for subsequent analysis and decision making.
Harmonizing Thoughts: My decisions are based on the principles of truth, and I know that only the right things happen in my life.
Sergey N. Lazarev in his books “Diagnostics of Karma” (books 1-12) and “Man of the Future” writes that the main cause of absolutely all diseases is the deficiency, lack or even absence of love in the human soul. When a person puts something above the love of God (and God, as the Bible says, is Love), then instead of gaining divine love, he rushes to something else. To what (erroneously) considers more important in life: money, fame, wealth, power, pleasure, sex, relationships, abilities, order, morality, knowledge and many, many other material and spiritual values...
But all this is not the goal, but only the means for acquiring divine (true) love, love for God, love like God. And where there is no (true) love in the soul, illnesses, problems and other troubles come as feedback from the Universe. This is necessary so that a person thinks, realizes that he is going in the wrong direction, thinks, says and does something wrong and begins to correct himself, takes the right Path!
There are many nuances in how the disease manifests itself in our body. You can learn more about this practical concept from the books, seminars and video seminars of Sergei Nikolaevich Lazarev.
Affirmations
Here are examples of affirmations that will help you get your internal problems off the ground. Of course, positive affirmations won't do all the work, but you will be able to look at what's hurting your teeth differently.
- I am firm in my intentions.
- I am always under the protection of Higher powers.
- I can take care of myself.
- I always rely on my beliefs.
- I maintain flexibility with the firmness I need.
- If I decide something, then I go to the end.
- I support myself at the right time.
- I have strong beliefs.
- I always make only the right decisions.
- I am always confident in myself.
- I always do the right thing.
So, we found out why teeth hurt and gum problems appear. Psychosomatics from Louise Hay, Sinelnikov, Liz Burbo and other authors certainly shed light on where to look for the reasons why dental diseases appear, the same fistula on the left side or prolapse in the upper jaw. Try to look deeper into the psychological basis of why crooked teeth appear, why they break, ache, decay or crumble. Use the table to quickly analyze your situation and don't be afraid to change. This is always beneficial.
GUM (PROBLEMS)
Liz Burbo in her book “Your Body Says “Love Yourself!”” writes about possible metaphysical causes of gum problems.
Gums are that part of the oral mucosa that covers the roots of the teeth. The description below applies to gum pain.
Emotional blockage.
A person whose gums hurt cannot put into practice an already made decision, because he is afraid of the consequences. He is also afraid to express his desires and needs, and experiences despair and helplessness.
Mental blockage.
You must find out how real and justified your fears are. If you have failed often before, this does not mean that you will not succeed this time either. Remember that there are no mistakes in life, there are only experiences that make you wiser and help you cope with new problems. Your body wants you to set goals and move towards them gradually, without trying to get everything at once. Believe in your strength and ability to create your own life.
Bodo Baginski and Sharamon Shalila in their book “Reiki - the Universal Energy of Life” write about possible metaphysical causes of gum problems.
Just as your gums are the foundation for your teeth, self-confidence and self-belief are the foundation for your ability to get things done and to bite. Gum problems indicate a deficiency in this area, usually due to the fear of losing the love of those around you. You don't have the courage to crack hard nuts, you're too vulnerable and sensitive. When you learn to love and respect yourself, you will become independent of the love and respect of others and will find within yourself the strength to realize your real desires. And then you will be able to truly love others, because love will be in you.
Wonderful! Reiki will help you regain lost faith in yourself.
Louise Hay in her book “Heal Yourself” points out the main negative attitudes (leading to disease) and harmonizing thoughts (leading to healing) associated with the appearance and healing of gum problems.
Inability to carry out decisions. Lack of a clearly expressed attitude towards life.
Harmonizing thoughts: I am a decisive person. I go to the end and support myself with love.
BLEEDING GUM
Lack of joy in the decisions you make in life. Harmonizing Thoughts: I believe that only right actions take place in my life. There is peace in my soul.
Vladimir Zhikarentsev in his book “The Path to Freedom. Karmic causes of problems or how to change your life" indicates the main negative attitudes (leading to illness) and harmonizing thoughts (leading to healing) associated with the appearance and healing
Is it possible to get rid of somatic pain?
Somatic pain can be eliminated if the cause is determined. Teeth are needed to defend ourselves and obtain food. Two conflicts can cause deterioration in the condition of teeth and gums:
- Aggression: the desire to “gnaw” or “bite” someone, which for certain reasons cannot be realized.
- “grabbing” too much of a “piece” (money, power, respect), which leads to deformation of the dentition.
In addition to eliminating conflict, you need to think about how you relate to new information. Perhaps you have a hard time accepting something and it gets stuck in your teeth.
How to deal with psychosomatic toothache
First of all, you need to regularly engage in self-analysis, develop positive character traits and correct the severity of negative traits. You can do charity work. And to correct your psycho-emotional state and reduce the level of aggression, you can do yoga, gymnastics, or any sport.
So, the scheme of the struggle is as follows: detection of a negative attitude and problem, selection of a harmonizing thought and refocusing of attention.
What will psychological work consist of in diseases of teeth and gums?
What to do if your teeth hurt due to nervousness:
- It is necessary to get rid of negative thinking, love yourself, eliminate dependence on other people's opinions, increase self-esteem and self-confidence. You need to learn to set realistic goals and make a plan to achieve them.
- In addition, it is important to learn to soberly assess risks and not be afraid to make a mistake. Mistakes are experiences and opportunities for personal growth. You cannot achieve success and development without defeats and mistakes. And in order to become more determined, you need to love yourself. Learn to take care of yourself and support yourself in difficult times. Additionally, you need to work on correcting your emotions. You need to learn to manage your conditions.
- To correct your thinking, it is better to consult a psychotherapist. The fact is that the true reason may lie in the subconscious. Such methods of psychotherapy as fairy tale therapy, symbol drama, cognitive behavioral therapy, hypnosis, NLP, and art therapy will help to bring the problem to the level of consciousness. When selecting methods and means of therapy, it is necessary to take into account the individual psychological characteristics of the client.
It is important! The duration of therapy depends on the depth, stability and scale of psychological problems. With old psychotraumas, full healing may take years. Moreover, it is important to understand that the success of treatment largely depends on the client’s independent work. The psychotherapist only guides, and the person himself makes decisions.
SMELL FROM THE MOUTH
Liz Burbo in her book “Your Body Says Love Yourself!” writes about possible metaphysical causes of bad breath.
A healthy person's breath has virtually no odor. Bad breath can be caused by a physical disease - DIGESTIVE disorder, DENTAL CARIES, etc. The description below applies primarily to cases where bad breath is not associated with any pathology.
Emotional blockage.
A bad smell of this kind comes as if from the depths of a person’s soul and indicates that this person is experiencing severe internal pain, as well as hatred, anger and a thirst for revenge - towards himself or towards people who have somehow hurt him. Thoughts about this cause him deep shame - that's why he doesn't even want to acknowledge them - and gradually kill him from the inside. With the help of this unpleasant smell, he keeps people close to him at a distance, although in fact he needs their presence more than anything else.
Mental blockage.
If you think you have bad breath, ask a few people who know you well. Find out if this smell is associated with any disease. If not, then this means that you should reconsider your attitude towards some things, since it greatly harms you. There is no wound that cannot be healed by true forgiveness. You don't have to feel helpless anymore. Also get rid of the false shame that you have maintained within yourself for so long. Tell yourself that you are a nice, pleasant person, and become like that in reality.
Bodo Baginski and Sharamon Shalila in their book “Reiki - the Universal Energy of Life” write about possible metaphysical causes of bad breath.
You breathe out what is in your thoughts, and if it smells bad, then something in your intentions is rotten or spoiled. And in this case, the symptom makes us honest with ourselves and shows what we are like internally. Therefore, pay attention to the world of your thoughts, what are they primarily aimed at? If your thoughts are again filled with love, friendliness and honesty, then you will exhale only goodness, your breath will again become pure and others will again be able to enjoy smelling you.
And here Reiki will lead you to self-knowledge.
Dr. Valery V. Sinelnikov in his book “Love Your Disease” writes about possible metaphysical causes of bad breath.
Your “dirty” thoughts and feelings, your past are so outdated that they have already “stinked”. It's time to bring something new and fresh into your life.
A young guy came to see me. He held a handkerchief near his mouth.
“Doctor,” he said, “a year ago I started having bad breath.” I don't know what this is connected with. — Maybe from inflammation in the nasopharynx?
“But the doctors examined me and found nothing.” And I feel that something is wrong there.
From communicating with the subconscious, it turned out that the cause of the problem was an unpleasant situation that happened just a year ago. And now, for a year now, the guy has been harboring anger and a desire for revenge.
I was able to convince him to reconsider his attitude towards the past and learn a positive lesson from it.
“Change your rotten old thoughts that have been preventing you from living all this time with new, fresh ones that will bring only pleasant experiences into your world,” I told him.
Louise Hay in her book “Heal Yourself” points out the main negative attitudes (leading to illness) and harmonizing thoughts (leading to healing) associated with the appearance and healing of bad breath.
Angry thoughts, thoughts of revenge. The past gets in the way.
Harmonizing thoughts: I am happy to part with the past. From now on I express only love.
WISDOM TOOTH (with obstructed slot)
Louise Hay in her book “Heal Yourself” points out the main negative attitudes (leading to illness) and harmonizing thoughts (leading to healing) associated with the appearance and healing of a wisdom tooth with an obstructed eruption.
You are not making room in your mind for laying a solid foundation for later life.
Harmonizing thoughts: I open the door to life into my consciousness. There is ample space within me for my own growth and change.
Diagnosis of periodontal disease
To identify signs of periodontal disease in adults, the following diagnostic procedures are usually performed:
- inspection;
- probing of the gingival sulcus;
- assessment of tooth mobility;
- X-ray examination (orthopantomography);
- biomicroscopy of the gums to determine the degree of microcirculation impairment.
The patient will also need observation from a general practitioner and endocrinologist to detect and treat general somatic pathology.
After a diagnosis of “dental disease periodontal disease” is made, further examination should be aimed at finding the causes of disturbances in the processes of cellular tissue nutrition, predicting the further development of the disease and the likelihood of inflammatory complications.
CARIES
Liz Burbo in her book “Your Body Says “Love Yourself!”” writes about the possible metaphysical causes of caries.
Emotional blockage.
Since teeth are necessary for chewing, that is, preparing food for digestion, caries indicates that a person does not want to accept someone or something. He feels intense rage, and therefore cannot take action and express his desires.
Caries also indicates that a person does not allow himself to laugh and takes life too seriously. If you want to find out what area of your life the unsatisfied desires that caused caries relate to, see the article TEETH (PROBLEMS).
Mental blockage.
Caries means that your stubbornness only harms you: it causes the same pain in your soul as a bad tooth causes pain in your body. Instead of being constantly angry and keeping this anger inside, you should reconsider your attitude towards what is happening around you and understand that not all people think the way you do. Learn to laugh at yourself, see the funny in people and events. Also, stop thinking that sugar can make life more enjoyable and eat as little of it as possible.
Consequences of periodontal disease - why is it dangerous?
- Firstly, due to the absence of pronounced symptoms, this disease can progress unnoticed over many years and lead to total destruction of the teeth and jawbone - and then teeth fall out with periodontal disease.
- Secondly, the destruction of bone tissue leads to disturbances in the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract with the subsequent occurrence of diseases of the digestive system.
- Thirdly, advanced periodontal disease can provoke periodontitis - acute inflammation of the tissue and tooth loss.
In addition to the above consequences, generalized periodontal disease in an advanced stage causes another dangerous disease - osteomyelitis, that is, purulent bone damage.
TEETH GRINDING AT NIGHT
Liz Burbo writes in her book “Your Body Says “Love Yourself!”
GRINDING of teeth, which usually appears at night, indicates that during the day you have accumulated anger within yourself and felt strong emotional stress. Your rational body helps you during sleep to get rid of the tension that arose while awake. But this is only a temporary relief.
You must immediately begin to find and solve the problem that is causing you constant anger and emotional stress, otherwise you will face much more serious troubles than grinding your teeth.
Bodo Baginski and Sharamon Shalila in their book “Reiki - the Universal Energy of Life” write about possible metaphysical causes of teeth grinding.
Grinding of teeth at night shows helpless aggression. The desire to actually bite is suppressed during the day, so the sharpness of the teeth decreases slightly at night. Be aware of your aggressiveness, your frustration and helplessness, do not push them into the night. (See also the information above on dental problems.)

Reading your teeth about diseases
Stages of periodontal disease
In modern dentistry, there are three degrees of severity of periodontal disease.
Mild degree
How does periodontal disease begin? In the early stages, the disease occurs without pronounced symptoms with gradual atrophy of the gum edge and bone tissue. With periodontal disease of the anterior teeth, a slight exposure of the dental necks occurs; in some cases, patients experience increased sensitivity of teeth to food irritants (hot and cold, sweet and sour). On X-ray images, the onset of periodontal disease is indicated by the first signs of bone tissue atrophy.
Average degree
With an exacerbation of periodontal disease, not only the necks, but also the roots of the teeth are exposed - by 2 - 3 millimeters. X-ray images show destruction of bone tissue along half the length of the root and the presence of foci of sclerosis.
Severe degree
With severe periodontal disease, exposure of the roots of the teeth reaches 4–5 millimeters, bone tissue atrophy on X-ray photographs covers two-thirds of the root.
