Hello~
I currently have TMJ/TMD and an anterior open bite which was caused by two high crowns
on my teeth number 45 and 46 when I was treated for a root canal two years ago. They were so
high that my dentist had to shave them off to make them lower and aligned with other teeth. I should
have done it sooner. Anyways, however, When I sleep at night these days,
because of the muscle spasm and tight muscles around the jaw and
the temple area, my jaw suddenly snaps shut involuntarily which is very
painful and frightening. So, I am using a night guard or mouth guard
molded to my upper teeth that protect the brunt/force of the shutting of my jaws when
I am sleeping. It's very helpful and useful. Otherwise, I would not be able to sleep out of
fear of my jaw snapping and potentially biting my tongue and harming my teeth.
My question is, is it okay to use a dental/night guard when I am sleeping in order to protect
my teeth from involuntary jaw-snapping syndrome? The anterior open bite and TMJ/TMD is going to
take some time to get better hopefully. My orthodontist said I may need braces to correct it but
I decided to give it some time hoping it will get better on its own. I learned so much from all your videos!!
You remind me of my Oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Atlanta, Ga where I am from but now I am currently
overseas. Bye~
Thank you, Dr.Mistry!!
I really don't think I can give a thorough answer without follow up questions and discussion. If you'd like, you can email my office to set up a Zoom meeting with me - patientcare@tmjdentaldoc.com
I have TN and I am wondering if I should attempt to do these exercises during pain flair which last about an hour or in between the pain episode. Which I fear I’ll trigger it… Either way it’s gonna hurt.
Its best to ask your neurologist this!
I have tmj. My dentist gave me a splint wearing 24/7. He also prescribed me neurobion tablet twice a day. Ma'am is 30mm mouth opening is normal now? Before i was hardly open 2 fingers.. i feel teeth misalignment now? Why is it????
I can't explain what's happening in your specific situation over the internet and without examining you.
Hello doc!
I'm having braces. And I think it moved my lower teeth to much inside until it's too close to my tongue which it's not comfortable to move my tongue when I'm speaking. It also effect my sounds.
Even when I relax my mouth, i don't feel comfortable because my tongue is a bit on my lower teeth.
I was trying to explain to my dentist. But he said he doesn't understand me because my teeth look fine. 😢
I'm sorry but I don't really know how to respond. You may want to work with a practitioner who provides Myofunctional Therapy OR with a Speech Therapist.
When I do the 6x6 exercise my teeth dont touch because I have an open bite. If this is the case should I do the exercise where my jaw naturally wants to go or should I try to align my teeth as close as I can without causing discomfort?
Bring your jaw forward and then do this.
That inside the mouth one literally relieved about 70% of the pain I’ve been feeling the last 4 days. My sleep has been so broken and moist heat only works for so long. Thank you 🥹
I’m So glad to have helped!
Mam i have overbite on left side of my face. Now that side muscles have overgrown. If i put braces will it correct facial asymmetry.
I cannot answer this over the internet and without examining you! Sorry..
Hi Doc, I can hear minimal grating sound only when I chew. Can this possibly be the “crepitus”? I don’t experience pain when it happens doc.
Yes it could be.
OPG means (Orthopantomagram) dental x ray of upper and lower jaw.. in it my upper and lower jaw position is normal.. but when i open my mouth to eat its not as much open as it was before plus i am feeling bite misalignment when i remove my splint.. should i go for tmj physiotherapy for jaw mobilization or continue to wear my dental splint for 9 months as told by doc. Or i should do my MRI for it???? Plz help
I'm sorry but I cannot make specific recommendations for you without examining you.
Should i go for others Tests? Because my opg is normal.. i feel my upper teeth not matching lower teeth like they were before.. plz tell me can splint cure this issue.. I am wearing splint on lower teeth for three months.
What is OPG? I'm sorry but I can't really tell you much without examining you.
I am experiencing clicking and limited mouth opening and tinnitus from 1.5 years I am from India. I am thinking it would be disc displacement with reduction, is it possible to recapture the disc or get back the disc in to allingment by orthotics?
It's possible. Sometimes we cannot eliminate the click entirely, but we can often soften it and prevent the jaw from locking (prevent disc displacement without reduction).
@@theTMJdoc I want to know nuero muscular dentist better for tmjd ? I have seen a regular dentist but he says to use only normal night guard and not an orthotic. Iccmo better?
I have done my opg for tmj... It was normal... Then why i feel teeth misalignment when i close my mouth like it is not like before it was.. is this i because of wearing splint side effect?
welp made it through shorts play list and got a list of medical documents to print out so if/when i see a tmj doctor so makes it easier on both so can see how teeth where before sure smiles (on week 15 atm got them thinking it would help tmj and migraines and dizzy spells so far its not helped) thanks for info just wondering should i wait till out of the sure smiles (from the 22 hours a day to 8hours or less) before getting seen atm chiropractors are keeping my tmj from locking closed but can tell they are strugging with the once a week visits since even in visit it can come back out multiple times in the 5 min appointment but atleast im not locking currently
I'm glad you're not locking currently!
@@theTMJdoc same on that I know it almost locked last week due to flare but calmed back down (went to point hurt to eat soup) so yea gonna make sure to get it looked into
Does botox also work in patients with slipped discs? temporarily. What do you think about hyaluronic acid?
No it doesn’t.
Hi maam..Is Dry needling therapy effective in tmj jaw pain
It can be yes.
i went to a dentist yesterday. i had jaw lock where i couldnt open my mouth more than 2 fingers for 2 months then jaw clicking problem. before that i had jaw catching episodes while eating hard food. i still cant open open my mouth fully without it clicking. he told to open so much that it doesnt click. for this edge to edge xercise, should i open fully or shoukd avoid clicking
I don’t feel comfortable giving advice for your specific condition over the internet and without examining you.

You’re welcome! 🙏🏼😊
