Two Cases of COVID-19 With Concomitant Unexplained Dental Pain: Coincidence or Related?

As the rapidly evolving Covid-19 pandemic spread and became a global concern and the study of the disease's features became possible, its signs and symptoms were elucidated in many studies around the world. In addition to other fairly typical symptoms including fever, cough, sore throat, and shortness of breath, the Covid-19 pandemic has several neurological symptoms that have been noted and documented, including headaches, muscle, and joint discomfort, loss of taste and smell, as well as generalized body aches. However, there were a few unusual symptoms that were noted, one of which we will focus on in this report, namely, tooth pain. The Covid-19 virus has caused tooth pain and discomfort in two Lebanese patients. The reported pain is not related to any local aggression; therefore, it is likely a neurological consequence of the viral infection by the SARS-Cov-2 virus.
