Jaw pain, gum pain and slight headache. what are possible causes?

TMD: When "everything hurts". Rule out the obvious tooth, gum, or sinus infection. Then begin to look at TMJ or joint and muscle pain. Clenching can be a big culprit. Then there are less obvious conditions such as trigeminal neuralgia and on and on.

Oral surgeon: Can be many things. Best plan is to see an oral & maxillofacial surgeon for diagnosis/treatment or referral suggestions.
