Could be: Can also be TMJ problems due to grinding. Have your dentist explore all of these possibilities.

Either: Your symptoms could be from either sinus conjestion and acute or chronic sinus disease or from a dental problem like a wisdom tooth. It could also be from some other dental problem also. You should see a dentist or ENT doctor for a definitive diagnosis.
