Well, I can't offer much in the way of advice that you probably haven't already heard, but I can honestly say I know how you feel.
Before they surgically removed my lower right wisdom tooth, they discovered that my left jaw is normal size, while my right jaw is only 3/8" thick; a real glass jaw, I guess. I was sore for almost two months. Trying to get to sleep was the worst. I hope your pain subsides soon.
