Any dentists or dental assistants ? What was it ?

Three years or so ago I had a problem with my jaw but can’t remember what the dentist said it was, and I think it’s happening again.
At the time I had some pain in the right side of my jaw, but it wasn’t localised to a tooth. I remember when I went he asked me to move my lower jaw to one side and it either made it better or worse. From that he knew what it was and said that it would go away in a few days, and it did.
Last night I suddenly developed some pain in the right side of my jaw again. I would say that it’s in the muscles that move it. It hurts more if I push my lower jaw to the left, and doesn’t hurt if I push it to the right.
Anyone know what it is ?

Temporomandibular disorder (TMD)?

I am very stressed at the moment so yes, sounds like that. Thanks.
