Understanding tmj problem
My bite and facial muscles were dismissed i.e. not normal because of tmj disorder. Now after many days of treatment with tmj splint, I am feeling that my bite is becoming normal and i am getting my original facial shape or symmetry and also all the pain and discomfort near jaw, neck and upper back area are going away. Are this some sign that i am curing slowly? And how can I understand externally by observing my body's signal that whether my tmj disorder is curing or going towards bad?

Great to hear that things are getting normal It definitely is a positive sign. U can actually not make out the progress of the treatment....this is the job of your dentist. I would advise you to see your dentist once. He can tell you weather it is curing or going towards bad. Keep your will power high. Believe in the treatment and your doctor. You will be fine shortly.
