Hi guys,
I had my wisdom teeth out May 18. I have for the past few years had slight pain/aching on my left side, right about where the jaws meet and sometimes down my neck infrequently (i.e. not constant and seemingly random). I do wear a bite guard at night. I always assumed this was because of my wisdom teeth pushing in but now they are gone and I still get this pain every so often.
I remember my dentist long ago saying I had slight TMJ but nothing major. I am heading to my oral surgeon for final post op Friday and seeing my dentist for something else Tues. I'm wondering if I should re-mention this and see if any treatment is available?
Just wondering if I seem to be on the right track and if there are any thoughts of this and possible treatment. Thanks!
