    Does anyone know if tmj can cause widespread aches and pains or is it just head and neck pains? i am waiting for a mouth guard and i don’t feel its just that as i feel achy all over my body and shooting pains even in my legs etc. Thanks any advice please? x

  4. Annabella says:

    Dear Christian It’s extremely difficult to say whether there is a connection as there are too many variables to take into consideration over large distances. We can never say never but it is HIGHLY unlikely.

    i have a custom fit nightguard .This type i warm in water to mold to my teeth.For a number of year now i wake up with one plugged nostril every nite. I have had the nose checked nothing wrong.I have to put nasonex or other lubicants up my nose to be able to breath.I end up taking the mouthguard out than have to go through this ritual every nite. Do you have any advice? thanks

    See an Ear Nose Throat specialist to evaluate this.

    Hi. I’m a freshman and the part of my cheeks under my ears just randomly started to hurt. It hurts when I apply pressure as well as when I try to open my mouth. When I try to open my mouth, it feels like there ‘s a pressure pushing my jaws back together. I don’t know what I have. What should I do?

  8. Mandy says:

    You are probably grinding and clenching your teeth as you sleep. I recommend you consult with a dentist and have them make you a night guard or other type of bite appliance. This should relieve your symptoms

    my teeth are wonky, twisted and overcrowded,4 top,4bottom,my mouth always feels uncomfortable and my jaw aches,this also ruins my confidence! what would be the best and cheapest way to fix this? im a single mother with virtually no funds! what can i do? i have seen a maxillo facial surgeon,who pescribed me pain killers for my jaw,but the medication makes me feel drowsey and sick! i proberly think about my teeth atleast 5 times a day and it depresses me.

  10. Jonatan says:

    Its hard for me to give you an opinion without seeing you first, it sounds like the overcrowding of the teeth isn’t the cause of the ache in your jaw. You should try to speak to the Maxillo facial surgeon again and see if they can refer you to an orthodontist in your area for a second opinion
