Hi..the only way to solve TMJ is by using night guard day and night for one month followed by orthodontic treatment.

Dear madam.
With the symptoms u mentioned my assumption is u have muscle contractions named "myofacial pain dysfunction syndrome".
Try to take muscle relaxants with hot fermentation of the affected muscles followed by stretching exercises of ur jaw muscle.

Hi
Please get yourself checked with a nearby dentist at the earliest .You need to get an Opg and new type of scan called CBCT if you can afford .This helps in better diagnosis .There are treatment options like splints to minimise the damage to your tmj .First your teeth needs to be assessed for any high points ...or if you have any habits like teeth grinding this can also affect the
joints....so you need a thorough examination to find the problem...xrays also help.All the best.
