unaligned jaw

Dear patient there could be couple of reasons: 1) fillings are high and need to be adjusted 2) muscle spasm due to injections you got (could last up to a month)
Metal taste in mouth

MS CONTIN® - (Morphine Sulfate Controlled-Release) Tablets could cause alteration in taste, ie metal taste. You should contact your MD......not your TMJ doc. Instead of meds and Trigger Point injections I recommend you find a Neuromuscular TMJ expert. Go to www.top3dentist.com

Dear patient Unlike the suggestions of "SurgiMenopause", a lower "splint" is the way to go. In addition it should not be flat either. A splint that you wear at night is not a solution neither treatment for TMJ disorders. It simply is there to protect your teeth from further damage. Unfortunately you have to go through impressions of both ...

Does your lower jaw freely move to right, left and forward, or ate there restrictions too? Prior to this do you recall a period of clicking joints? I recommend y...
