Need an exam: Jaw pain could be related to multiple sources including dental issues and cardiac issues. If you feel the source is your teeth, see a dentist. If you have no idea of the source, start with a PCP to r/o serious medical issues and if nothing is seen, then go to a dentist or appropriate clinic offering dental services. Don't put it off!!

Multiple reasons: Start with your GP, Urgent Care, or ER to rule out heart attack, especially if you have nausea, chest pain, dizziness. Once you have clearance from MD?DO, see your DDS/DMD to be evaluated for infected tooth/gums, jaw joint dyscrasia, tooth fracture, or other Dental causes. A pill won't fix you, you need professional care.
