Thank you very much for this wonderful video and very useful information. We hope you will explain to us the treatment of TMJ hypermobility

Great video, I finally understand my TMJ when you break it down into different areas. I have had all of these painful symptoms. I am now on Naproxen which has made an incredible improvement. My disk is all "mashed up", I have had Crepitus as well. My doctor also has me on some jaw strengthening and opening exercises. On top of it, I had Disc fusion of my C1 and C2 a year ago. (Yes, I'm kind of an arthritic mess, LOL.) If I have to rely on Naproxen for the rest of my life, I wonder what I am going to do, I don't know the long term affects of it is. Thanks for your videos, Priya!!!

For people who have clear clicking and popping where the disk come out of alignment, why is it that some people don't experience any pain from the retrodiscal tissue. I had TMD with clicking and popping but never experienced pain coming from the retrodiscal tissue itself, but did have slight pain and soreness coming from all the muscles of mastication. Is there a certain level of disfunction that has to be reached in the system for the pain in the retrodiscal tissue to arise?

Can exercises be performed on the medial pterygoid muscle or is it unreachable? I've seen you make videos on releasing the lateral pterygoid but not on the medial pterygoid. Thanks!

Can you focus on the shoulder muscles, tmj affected pain there and share release exercises? If you have already... I did not find that.

Like Doctor advise,based on suspicion TMJ disorder,i am following soft food diet and it helps with pain..So far government dentist gave me muscle relaxant and painkiller along with some cream to appy on jaw,near neck and ears and it helps to reduce pain but not long untill it comes again..Having hard time with this and had several panic attacks because sometimes its hard to swallow food and even saliva because of the pain on jaw and chin too..Help me out doctor need some advice and opinion from u thank u doc😢

Hi doctor,i am Nishan from Malaysia..I am having jaw pain for past 1 month..I went to dentist suspecting TMJ based on the symptoms headache,pain near ear and hard to eat,speak and swallow and even worst panic attacks.But they said no TMJ disorders based on Xray only😢Went to many clinics,hospital but they are confused..I couldn't open my mouth fully while eating and it is giving me neck and shoulder pain too..Who should i consult for better results doctor?Who can detect this TMJ disorder?I am currently visiting Ent specialist and took blood test so hoping no problem on my nerves or bones..Som doctors suspect TMJ disorders but no enough evidence to say i got TMJ..

Is there any mouthwash that can help toothache pain? Thank you.

Opinions on a displaced disk in jaw that just cracks easily if I move my mouth a certain way. It’s been like this for 7 years and i have to wait until I’m older to get the surgery bc my parents. I’m 19 rn. If I don’t eat, the side of that area (left side of jaw) feels a small ache sensation and it feels like I need to keep cracking/popping it. Idefk I’ve dealt with this torture everyday. Is this permanent or something.

Mam I have a doubt 🤔 - I have TMJD on right how it affects the TMJ on left .

Hello, hopefully you can help me. I previously had popping/pain on my left TMJ. I was put on day/night guard 24/7 for 7 months and successfully completed phase 1. To start phase 2(braces) I was sent to remove all wisdom teeth. It's been 3 weeks since wisdom teeth removal and there has been a strong pain only on the same tmj I treated everytime I chew. My jaw did not like the surgery too much. Pain grows with harder foods, pains concentrated on the joint but after chewing, muscles on cheek feel sore. Since there's no popping/clicking I feel it might be the muscles of mastication. My question is, will time and a soft food diet resolve the issue or will I need a specific treatment. I truly appreciate it.

I have done MRI TMJ one week back . After that I am feeling some disturbance in my throat. Will it effect the throat. I feel something struck in my throat. They put some 20 mm cyrange to open the mouth while doing MRI

I have been watching your videos and I have learned a lot about TMJ and all the bad habits I have and I need to let go (gum chewing, clenching...). Have you got any information about TMJ and tinnitus? I thought I was growing def, but after hearing exams, my doctor told me it's my jaw and there is nothing he can do about it...

I dislocated my jaw eating an apple...my teeth got stuck. My chiropractor put it back but I was having trouble keeping it in. I found you videos and I am 8 weeks into the jaw staying in place. I realized that it was the muscles that kept pulling the jaw out. You are the only one that actually mentioned adjusting the neck. I am about 98% tmj free...no clicking etc.. due to the massaging the muscles behind the ear. I am massaging all the chewing muscles daily now.

I have swalling in my mouth muscles and if i eat food my tmj pain but no cliking i can open my mouth 4 fingers i have rest my joint 30 days to not eat hard but it cannot do any thing properly but some people says that chewiing in hood for tmj it can high blood circulation and if there are swalling in tmj it can reduce it can i chew plzzzzz answer me plzzzzzzz🙏🏻

I have seen a neurologist this week who has told me my left droopy eyelid is a severe form of muscular TMJD and when my jaw and temporal area hurt the most I also get a droopy eye lid on the affected side. Months on end. It freaked me out in the beginning but neuro assured me it's muscular. My face is now being asymmetrical because of this and i hate it. Makes me really sad. I do have a bad case of TMJD and wish I was able to visit your practice. But I live in Europe. Health insurance wise I prob can. But idk if it will help me. It's just really frustrating that 3 years in, it is worsening and treatments have no affect so far. Botox is my last hope. Don't like it. Very expensive (it's not insured here) but I need to try it. Fingers crossed.
