Dental Pain

I have been having dental pain for 3 months now(not dental related according to 3 dentist) Most of the pain is in the uppermost area of the gums and my cheek is sore.I was checked by my physician who said its not tigeminal neuralgia. I was checked by a ENT who said it may be a Nerve problem(seems like he guessed)because when I left he said"let me know what happens Im always learning too". I seem to think somehow its dental related. Could this be TMJ? Forgot to mention my bite is definely off. Im thinking about seeing a Neuromuscular Dentist> Any advice will be helpful.  Thank You

I am not sure what a Neuromuscular dentist is. If you mean a dentist that specializes in  TMJ dysfunction or pain management then I think it would be helpful if everything else has been ruled out. I would anticipate that you had a full series of x-rays and that all possible tooth problems have been eliminated.
