2nd opinion on TMD Surgery

2021-04-14 12:24:35
My dentist has recommended that I undergo surgery for my misaligned jaw. He said its going to be quite extensive and I'll also require plastic surgery (something I definitely don't want to do). I just want to know if I can get another opinion on this. Don't get me wrong my dentist is great and has helped me a lot. I just want to get another opinion. When I exercise I have tightness in my shoulders and when I skip, only my right jaw clicks. It's weird. Also recently my lower left molar crown fell off and since then my left shoulder feels weaker. Any connection?
