WOW!!! i thot i was the only one with this probs. now lets see, do u lyk to bite food that are hard directly at the back of ur mouth? if so, u are relying too much on ur stronger teeth, and when ur tooth gets pushed backwards, it cant move backwards bcos of the gums, and thats when ur swelling comes in. so STOP relying so much on the teeth towards the back of ur mouth!!! (im trying to kick that habit too) try brushing ur teeth more lightly too... it helps

Since you were not very specific about the location, I'm going to suggest that it's your wisdom tooth trying to come in. If the swelling is directly in line with your other teeth, that's what it is. Time to have them checked out by your dentist. You MIGHT get luckey and find that you just have to have a very sharp point trimmed from the upper wisdom tooth. Sometimes that is all it takes to make the pain during eating stop.

It could be your wisdom teeth that is causing you pain, If it really hurts that bad you should go to the dentist to find out what it is.

Jaw or throat?? Jaw probably means you need your wisdom teeth out...or a bad tooth. Throat could be many things...go to the doctor.
