Enameloplasty
I am currently suffering from tmj pain for the past several months. I got an enameloplasty done on my left molars I thought it could be the reason, and now I'm getting treated for my tmj. I am worried that my enameloplasty has caused irreversible change to my bite.
Is there any way in which I can restore occlusal equilibrium after having done an enameloplasty? There has to be some way right?

Plese visit an orl maxillofacial surgeon for such issue..per se enameloplasty doesnt lead to tmj pain but occlusion disruption can.

It will be in good faith if you visit n let the doctor check for the root cause n give you the treatment options accordingly.
