I am a being treated for tmj disorder. I think I am getting back my original bite slowly but my facial structure and symmetry are not coming back to original(before having tmj disorder). Is there any possibility where my tm joint can move backward than normal (before tmj disorder problem)? Please tell me how can I regain my original facial shape and symmetry?
