My jaw is killing me - I need to get it seen to , but where do I go , the dentist or the doctors?

If it helps, it hurts where you would imagine there would be a hinge for the 2 parts of the jaw at the back of the left of the teeth.

I know this is probably an extremely stupid question!! :)

Also, because I am in the Navy and obviously have naval doctors and dentists, rather than civilian ones - can I still get seen by NHS doctors and dentists?

doctor yes, dentist possibly not
 
You should be able to register as a temporary patient at a GP surgery and be seen. Or could use an NHS walk in centre
 
I have a clicking jaw.

The doctor told me to go see the dentist. The dentist was useless. I just have to deal with having a clicking jaw. :/
