Worried about pressure on upper front tooth.

Hi, so I've had this for the past few days and it's starting to really worry me. I bit down on something hard and ever since then I've had this strange pressure on my upper front tooth. It seems to get worse by the day, at first I barely noticed it. It's not really painful, it just feels strange when I close my mouth, like my tooth has moved. When I tap it, it doesn't budge though.

I also can't see any stains, holes or swollen gums, so I have no idea what's going on. I wake up with a bad taste in my mouth and I salivate excessively when closing my mouth. It kind of feels like when I still had braces. Does anyone have an indication as to what this could be? I'm so scared of losing a tooth.

It is unusual for your strange feelings to persist because your teeth has natural "shock absorbers" in the Periodontal Ligament. If your strange feelings don't resolve, you may need an x-ray image and have your dentist evaluate it.
