I need some help...I am Scared😔😭
So, in 2018 - i got hit by an elbow of a guy accidently he was a friend of mine. We were picking our bags n stuff. It didn't pain much. But, it felt tingly and slight pain. Later on, pain stared, we visited Doc did x-ray nothing came out. Then in Feb, 2021 we did MRI scan along with Opg and stuff and Doc said you "*may*" have had fracture in the past in the jaw or joint. But, he didn't tell anything abt TMJ or TMD. My insticts tell me maybe there was no fracture at all. Then, we removed right side impacted "touching my sensory nerves" wisdom tooth upper and lower. Not left side yet. And my teeth don't touch properly. The back side touch somehow front ones don't really. And sometimes, my right side teeth touch and sometimes left only back side ones. Not front side. I have ear problems also "Tinnitus" "Hyperacusis". And I DONT WANT ANY SURGERY. Braces or anything would be ok. Bcoz, Doc said they would fake a cut in jaw and join it. They didn't finalise that yet. They only said "maybe" 😔

Hi, So ur teeth arent touching each other since 2018 or even before that? This condition is called open bite or apertognathia. Please share the opg u have . A permanent good solution to the problem is surgery . But your condition needs to be assessed first.
Next Steps
please consult a maxillofacial surgeon
