Can you injure your jaw sleeping?

I woke up a few days - a week ago with a stretching/sprain like pain in the right side of my jaw. It's origin seems to be close to the "hinge" part of the joint/jaw by my ear and cheek bone. Just the right side. Opening and closing my mouth is more or less harmless, but if my jaw flexes or shifts left or right horizontally, it sends a shooting pain in the muscle or ligament or something of that nature. I haven't had anything happen that would have made me anticipate an injury. I just woke up one day like that.

Can you strain or pull a jaw muscle just sleeping? Or maybe chewing and the pain only appeared after sleeping?
