Change in bite during Tmj treatment

2019-12-24 17:00:04
During my final phase orthodontic treatment with braces for bite correction because of tmd I am now experiencing that my bite is changing almost everyday and this change is happening in very uncomfortable way which make me very nervous, anxious and frustrated. Also I feel that my overbite is increasing due to the action of braces...is it possible for braces to increase my overbite? Is doing masturbation 3 days in a week will affect my tmj problem? Please clear my doubts and please help me 🙏.
