Hello.. Welcome to practo..
I advice you some measures before visiting dentist..
1. Avoid being stress.
2. Have a good sleep.
3. Avoid opening your mouth wide.
4. Take soft diet for two days.
5. Chew slowly and on both sides..
6. Avoid clenching your teeth,, if you have this habit..
7. Drink more water.
Follow these for one week. Stress will aggrevate the pain.. So stop thinking about this pain.
After one week, there will be some relief in your pain. If there is relief, then the pain might be only due to dental problem..
So continue with your dental treatment..
In case, if the pain didn't relief, it may suggest that, pain is not due to dental problems.. In that case, you can go to general physician..
But the tmj pain for a long time can cause pain in neck, head, throat and ear..
Consult me for further details.. Thank you..
