See your Dentist: Sounds like you may have Temporomandibular Joint disorder. Many factors can affect the jaw joint such as genetics, arthritis or jaw injury. Some people who have jaw pain tend to clench or grind their teeth (bruxism). See your dentist, who will take xrays & examine your jaw/mouth movements. You may need a night mouth guard to prevent clenching/grinding & pain relievers. Surgery is a last resort.
