Uncomfortable bite during tmj treatment
Why do I feel so much uncomfortable bite during tmj final step treatment with braces? Also why don't I get any force to bite on foods? Is it normal or my treatment is making my condition worse?
Please help.

While Braces treatment is going on, your teeth are a little loose in the bone as the bone is remodelling around them. Lack of pressure on chewing may be normal. But talk to your Orthodontist about it at the earliest.
