Could be...: Could bee infected tooth/teeth, infected gums, TMJ, split (fractured) tooth, or one of hundreds of other problems. Can't diagnose without examination/X-rays and other tests. Please put down the computer, pick up the phone, and call your Dentist for an emergency appointment ASAP before your chronic problem becomes an acute problem.

R/O TMJ syndrome: Symptoms of TMJ disorders may include: pain or tenderness of your jaw. Then pain can be felt at the side of the head (the temple), the cheek, the lower jaw, and the teeth. See your dentist to rule out the TMJ syndrome.
