See your Dentist: You may be clenching or grinding. You may have a wisdom tooth problem, or a gum problem. You may also have a sinus problem coincident with your ear infection. See your Dentist to determine etiology.

A few things: Confusing array of symptoms. Upper teeth pain and ear infection suggests sinus infection. Jaw and ear pain suggests possible TMJ problem. See dentist, if teeth negative, see ENT doc. If TMJ problem, see TMJ expert.
