Have TMJD. Why Constant Headaches And Teeth Breaking? From TMJ?
I was informed by an ENT that I have TMJD but nobody seems to be able to give me info on it or make me more comfortable. I found some info online & think that the constant headaches & my teeth breaking are likely from this TMJ, however, I need to know if there is something that can help. I have tried mouth guards from walmart but I keep biting through them & taking them out in my sleep. What can I do for some relief?
