Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Well, Myofascial pain is mainly in the muscles and yes, it can cause mouth pain also but if pain is localised to teeth then it can be either generalised gum Infection, if pain is in upper teeth and gums then it can be due to Sinus Infection or Sinusitis..

So my suggestion is to consult an Oral Surgeon and get evaluated..

A full mouth x Ray should be done to rule out the exact cause as it will help in evaluating your teeth, jaw, sinuses etc..

For now if pain is severe you can take painkillers and muscle relaxants..
Take soft diet and avoid stress..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
