This channel is all about TMJ disorders - what they are, how they manifest, what to do about them and how they relate to other issues that may be going unnoticed in the body such as tongue tie, sleep apnea, ADHD, and more! I will also be posting about being a dentist and a working mom to two wonderful children. Thank you and I hope you enjoy my videos!
this is all ready great info! and everyone should know this and implement it. Now at what point should someone just go with joint replacement surgery???
Surgery is always a last resort in my opinion!
It seems my entire family has a jaw issue that I never learned of until now- after doing Invisalign and everything, so my teeth appear aligned but the jaw is nevertheless uneven. I’m meeting with the same orthodontist who did my Invisalign to discover what’s happening… wish me luck😅
Best of luck to you!
Question that may have been asked before but have you had patients with celiac that may have caused TMD? Curious if there is a correlation between gluten and the inflammation if you have celiac or cannot tolerate gluten.
I have not seen that as a direct cause before.
Dr Priya awesome podcast, I am having bite issues which is giving me headaches i believe. Vision problems. My jaw does not align. They sit on top of each other . I do not live in the USA. What can i do? Any suggestions about the bite? Who to see locally? Please help. 🙏
I’m sorry but I cannot make suggestions over the internet and without examining you.
It feels like I have muscle knots around my jaw that I feel is prolonging my current TMJ flare up. Is there a way to speed up the knots loosening?
Try some self-massage. Check out this video:

I have a dying question! What does it mean if I cannot close my back molars together? Some release from the lateral pterygoid seems to help but the problem comes straight back. I haven’t been able to close my back teeth down for months so would appreciate any help
There are so many things that cause the bite to change, that there’s no way I can answer this over the internet and without follow up questions and discussion. If you’d like you can set up an online consultation with me.
my C1/C2 is always moving even after adjustment. It locks up after 1/2 weeks, .. how can neuromuscular help me? At what point does someone just go for joint replacement surgery?

Sorry to hear this! I cannot make suggestions for you over the internet and without examining you. Sorry!
Hey. Is it common for molar tooth extraction to make TMD worse?
It’s not common but it could be
I have never had TMD. After a long dentist appointment I started having jaw and temple pain. Its been two months that I have been on muscle relaxants and NSAIDs. I get random flareups (temple pressure, muscle spasms, etc.. From your experience how long does this last? Can this become chronic for me? Thanks
If it's going to go away on its own, it will calm down in 6-8 weeks. If it doesn't, it could become chronic.
@@theTMJdoc Thanks Doctor, if it does go on for more than 8 weeks, through seeking treatment can I stop it from becoming chronic? In your practice do you solve the chronic cases so I can book an appointment?
@@mmehride1 yes, most of my patients have been in pain for many months.
Hi, Is mastoid process bone increase due to tmj , and pain in that part ?
The bone doesn't get larger but it can certainly be painful for those with TMJ/TMD!
Hi Prithi! ❤ Nanny Di
Hi Nanny Di! How as you????? 💝
Dr Priya.....to treat TMJ orthotic is the only solution? I wish I could see you in person. It's hard to find a good TMJ Dr here.
I think it’s one of the best solutions but no, it’s not the only one.
@@theTMJdoc Thank you Doc
You're welcome!
I have left sided clicking
I had developed left sided myopia
Why is everything left sided with me
I had an impacted left wisdom tooth is that the reason
Also my headache started when I was 17 the age when wisdom teeth arrive
Sorry to hear that! I can't really tell you why things are left sided over the internet and without examining you.
do most people you see have crooked teeth at weird or cartoon-like angles
No, not necessarily
What's the purpose of a TMJ splint? Is it always necessary? Or if your jaw is moving pretty normally can you go directly to braces?

What? Mewing is an action you can control. If don’t want to do it, just stop.
