See dentist: You may have what is called tmd especially if you have malocculsion, teeth-grinding, or teeth-clenching (usually at night). This may also occur after trauma to the jaws. Consult your dentist.

Vague but: Vague as far as duration, severity, frequency and if the pain radiates. Sounds like a tmj/tmd problem, but you need a thorough exam and history and i would start with your dentist.
