Possible TMJ Disorder?

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hi everyone,

For years now my jaw would lock whenever I yawned, I would also get pain around my eyes, my jaw still locks although it subsides within a few seconds but now I have a really sore face and it's killing me, I felt my TMJ and it's sore when I press on it, I am seeing my dentist tomorrow, what would he do about this?

Thanks.

    hiya  :o)

    well, jonathan.. gone past tuesday so i guess you must be up and running with your new 'accessory' ...if you'll pardon the pun, any first impressions?

    i imagine for the first day or three it'll feel as though you've got a trout riding a bicycle stuck in there but i hope you're already feeling it could just be worth it.  it's clearly not an ideal solution but may well be just what's needed right now and trying to deal with it further down the line would've been much harder!

    thumbs up you're giving it a go!   wink
