I'd ask your dentist about TMJ, or maybe grinding your teeth when you sleep.

I would ask your denstist too about TMJ or TMD both are of the Jaw, but one has to do with joint and one has to do with muscles.

well it's only on one side of my jaw my right side. my friends told me it might be my wisdom teeth comming out. but i might go to my doc. what does TMJ mean?
or what is TMD mean
Your Mom should set you up with a Pedodontist (dentist specializing in care for kids) to have a thorough exam and x-rays. You most likely have what is called TMJ or temporomandibular joint problems, which can be caused from grinding your teeth at night, stress, or misaligned teeth. At any rate, it can be quite painful, and before it gets too bad you should be seen by a dentist specializing in the problem you are experiencing. I hope it gets better - please comment when you are seen by a dentist to let us know how you are doing.

i will tell you when i go but for now the pain is gone.. i don't know if i should still go to a dentist or not for a check up.
I would still go to an appt. IMO
