Right Jaw Muscle/Joint pain
the right side of my jaw has been getting progressively worse over the past 3 days, at first it just felt like sore muscle, then it progressed to the point where it hurts to bite down, something like where my jaw was dislocated or something, but i have done nothing to provoke it, i took some ibuprofen and that seemed to help, my teeth feel fine, im 21 and ive never had a cavity, but this may be my first? im not sure what to think of it.
What you describe does not sound like a cavity. Look for a TMJ specialist dentist in your area.
