Sign of improvement from tmj problem
After almost 2.5 yrs of treatment for tmj problem by dentist now I think my upper and lower molar teeth are touching slowly and now I can chew food more comfortably than before.... Even though I have not treated totally and even now I have lots of problem in my muscles, neck, shoulder etc can you say- are these the sign of improvement? Will  my treatment completely cure me? Please help....

What all were the treatments provided to you as yet? TMD meaning temporo mandibular disorders, needs a diagnosis of either being a predominantly a muscle problem or joint problem or concomitant. Kindly mention the diagnostic aids, utilised to arrive at the final diagnosis. Only then I would be able to suggest future course of management.
