A few thoughts...: Pain could be coming from periodontal issues, carious lesions, your bite, and grinding. To determine the exact cause and the appropriate treatment, you'll need to visit a local dentist for an exam. Please make the call.

Contact DDS: Rule out a history of trauma first, have the dentist evaluate all teeth with a full mouth series of radiographs and refer you to an oral surgeon if the wisdom teeth need to be addressed.

Night Bruxism: or teeth clenching is not a dangerous problem. However, it can cause permanent damage to the teeth, toothache, and uncomfortable jaw pain. See dentists who have more experience in evaluating bruxism.
