jaw pain/popping after dental implants

I just had dental implants last week and have been experiencing discomfort in my jaw, eye, face, ear and slightly
down my neck. When I chew, I now have popping sounds. Any ideas? Should I be concerned about this or
give it time to heal. Thanks

I had a dental implant about a month ago.  Since then some jaw crackling has developed and it bothers me a lot.  It's loud inside my head and whenever I open my mouth it cracks.  Very mild pain is involved.  What is going on?
