This can happen if it's a molar way back in your mouth and often a dentist will use a "block" to freeze the area and also the dentist puts a tool in back there to hold your mouth open. Thus, this causes some pain in the jaw area and it's painful to open your mouth. It will go away in a couple of days. Try eating soups, jello, yogurt, etc. You can also rinse your mouth out with table salt and warm water, spit it out AND DON'T RINSE YOUR MOUTH! Do this 3 - 4 times a day. If this pain continues for more than two days call your dentist.
