TMJ ?: A possibility. Ask your dentist if a night guard is indicated.

See 2 doctors: See ENT to evaluate and treat your sinus infection. See your Dentist for an Occlusal Orthotic, a night guard, to protect your teeth and jaw joints form the damage that bruxism (grinding) causes.

Dr Rosenblatt and another doctor agreed
