Hi all,
So I have horrendously awful jaw pain, particularly in my left jaw. I do have TMJ but I wear a mouth gaurd every night and it doesn't do much. (This is a professional, upper jaw mouth guard made by my dentist. He always tries to adjust it and it never makes a big difference.) I know exercising and (attempting) to de-stress can help, but I am getting desperate. The pain is so awful, just moving a single muscle in my mouth hurts...
I heard that getting acupuncture can help with this. Have any of you gotten acupuncture to help with tmj? Any other tips for help? Honestly it's the worst thing going to sleep and waking up to this pain.
Also, I'd also really appreciate acupuncturists in Ann Arbor if any of you can recommend any :)
Thank you so much.
