I don't know if this pain I'm having is coming from my teeth/gum or the muscles in my lower jaw. I have this dull pain, can't actually pinpoint where it is. It's around my lower jaw on the left-side (in the gums?). The pain comes in randomly, eating or not. It doesn't hurt when I touch my teeth or gums in the lower left side of my mouth. But that shouldn't rule out that it's a toothache or tooth-related problem, right?

Ok but how often do you brush ?

After I get out of bed and go to the bathroom to do my business and wake-up duties. And around midnight. I don't floss though.

possibly an abscessed tooth/the nerve in your tooth is dying.

go see your dentist.
