It's possible that you're grinding your teeth at night. Or, you could be clenching your jaw during times of stress without realizing it. I do this a lot. Does it occur most often say, at school or work? Or when you first wake up?

If you don't think it's clenching or grinding, see a doctor or a dentist.

well how old are you? I would only worry if your a middle age man because this could be a sign of a heart attack. Go see a doctor! But, if your a teen i would most likely suspect its growing pain or your mouth is jsut tired.

It could be TMJ.

it might be your jawbone itself. does ur jaw pop a lot? it might pop out of its socket slightly and be causing your nerves to send pain signals.
