You might have TMJ (temporal mandibular joint). Nothing really serious, but can cause jaw pain and headaches. You might be grinding your teeth at night. You can see your dentist for this problem and he or she can give you a night guard.

maybe it has something to do with blowing and sucking......

Stress? You might be grinding or clenching your teeth at night.

might be wisdom teeth if you have not had them removed already
