  Yup...we all get the jaw pain...I always thought it felt like I had all my weight resting on my jaw all night...that is how it felt...not sure how I could have done it....lol...

  To rule out TMJD u may want to go to a sporting goods store and get a mouth guard that u conform to ur mouth by placing in boiling water, this will prevent u from grinding ur teeth or clenching ur jaw.

I recommend this mouth piece also.  I have TMJ and wear one at night.  It does help with the pain in the morning.
