TMJ problems
I have been diagnosed with TMJ. I have face and teeth asymmetry, clicking and stiff jaw, jaw pain when i open my mouth, neck and shoulder pain, headaches and mood swings, breathing difficulties,improper sleep pattern from discomfort on the head and neck's position. I have been to many Dental clinics where they had only provided me mouth guards to wear when i sleep. Please provide me a permanent recovery solution from all these problems.
