Do you have an OT working with him? Ask for ideas. Sometimes, a weighted blanket or a session with hard pressure can help a kid to relax.

one of mine had a toothache at that age that turned out to be the problem.

Could definitely be sensory related. It's possible he's over-stimulated and needs some calming exercises before bed. But I know that a sensory child can also have a hard time switching gears from wake to sleep and sleep to wake. Ask your OT.
