Dental Issue: Certain muscle relaxants or anti-anxiety may help your condition but you may need a professionally made splint. My best recommendation is to see your dentist so a proper diagnosis can be made and treament offered.

TMD: It sounds like you are having tmd issues, most likely muscles are in spasm. You should see your dentist and see about having a deprogrammer or similar device made. You might also be a candidate for an occlusal splint.
