Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
The cause of this jaw pain can be problem of jaw joint also called as temporomandibular joint.
In this condition there will pain while opening and closing of mouth as it is situated on both side in front of the ear.
So better to get an OPG done as it will show the condition.
Hope it will help you.
