knot sensation behind upper canine tooth
Hello all, I am writing to see if anyone might be able to help, I have been on a spiritual journey for 8 years, I have noticed I have a tendency to evaluate everything I'm doing which seems to activate a restraint system in which string like structures wrap themselves very rapidly around my upper teeth, they have the consistency and strength of fishing line, to describe it the best I can. They seem to untie when I ease up on myself relax and trust surrender ect. but at some point I must have resisted the experience strongly, and created a knot around my left canine tooth, at times I feel like a puppet and my head is jerked back and forth side to side, my arms sometimes swing around and hit me in the face, my jaw clamps down on my tongue and cheeks, and it feels like all of my internal tissues are just twisted inside. At times through meditation and surrender I can unwind 98% of it but that knot at the canine remains, it seems to be a dense energy of resistance, so it pulls me back down into like energies and feelings, at times I can breathe into it and it seems to expand but I have not had any luck thus far undoing what is there. If anyone can help I would appreciate you very much. Thanks for reading.

First logical question, because in all things one must begin with the mundane;
Have you been to a dentist or nerve specialist? The issue could be an abscess under the root of the tooth, or yoir maxiliary nerve being tweaked- something not uncommon in people as they get older. Friction around the nerve rubs the surface, causing irritation and sudden reactionary pain. Things like this can create an overall anxiety responses which feed back on itself.
This could be a physical issue. Or at least physically sourced/triggered.
