Answer to your ?: Thanks for all the information. However, without actually being able to personally and clinically examine you, along with seeing x-rays of your teeth and jaw, we can't diagnose your problem(s) nor advise you what treatment is necessary. You will have to consult with a local dentist to get those answers. If you already have and are not happy with your dentist, find another well respected dentist.

Jaw pain?: You don't say where the pain is located, or whether this is the result of an injury, but if the pain is in your jaw, what you're describing sounds like tmj/tmd. If your dentist does not treat TMJ problems, ask for a referral to a specialist. You may also want to see an oral surgeon to have the painful area evaluated.
