The : The first concern is that this could be signs of a heart attack. Have him evaluated in an emergency room. If this turns out not to be the case then you can follow through with an evaluation by his dentist and his physician.

Chest pain: We always encourages patients to seek immediate care once they experience any pain let a lone chest pain, hard to know what condition is your husband in obese , diabetic , smoker , high blood pressure , history of heart disease , you see i would seek medical care at once , good luck.

Yes, go to MD: Your husband should go to the doctor as soon as possible. The jaw, tongue, and chest pain could be signs of a heart attack. It could be something as simple as indigestion, but i doubt it since it has been going on this long. Please go to the doctor now.
