Q: Headaches and minor tooth ache

Hello,

Ok so a couple of months ago i suffered a migraine and several headaches over a long period of time, i also had a throbbing pain in my tooth in upper jaw, and pain in this side of my face, aswell as severe earache. I also seemed to have phantom pain in different teeth too which i couldnt explain. Hot drinks would bring these sympoms on worse, and sometimes whilst eating i would experience a severe sharp pain in this upper tooth. After going to the doctors i was misdiagnosed as having sinisitus. Failure to get rid of the sympoms i visited the dentist who did some root canal work. The sympoms appeared to go away, although i wasnt totally convinced that was the problem, and still sometimes got headaches.

So a couple of days ago i am re experiencing headaches and minor teeth ache, and also cannot drink hot drinks as it triggers it further. I have always had a clicking jaw also.
Could this possibly be TMJ??

Thanks for reading this & comments would be much appreciated, thanks.
