Go for OPG to rule out any underlying pathology.

Have you ever had a dental X-ray done that shows all teeth at once called OPG? getting that done would help eliminate a few reasons why you might have pain.
You should consider consulting an Oral & Maxillofacial surgeon in your town to rule out the cause of your pain.
