I awoke to a cracking sound from grinding my teeth and developed a bacterial infection. Still hurts to put pressure on it. What could it be?

Q.
I had 3 dental implants placed 9 months ago. Everything was fine, but after waking up to a \”cracking\” sound from grinding my teeth in the middle of the night – I have had pressure and pain over one of the teeth. Dentist took x-rays a month ago and said everything was fine. However since then I developed a bacterial infection the left sde of my face. Doctor says it was probably a sinus infection and I have taken antibiotics. The bacteria pain has eased, but it still hurts to put pressure on the tooth. Could it be sinus or the tooth.

Advise please,
