See a TMJ/TMD Dr.: Four years? You need to see a tmj/tmd specialist for a thorough history and exam. You may be only able to maintain your problem and you may have cycles of good and bad. Don't hesitate. See someone asap.

See Expert: See a TMJ expert for advice. Any dentist can be a TMJ expert with the proper training and experience. Most commonly, oral surgeons, prosthodontists, and orofacial pain specialists. Ask your MD, your dentist and your dental society for referrals.

TMJ Dysfunction: TMD, musculoskeletal pain in the TMJ area can arise from the cervical spine and those rheumatic and collagen diseases that affect the masticatory system and cervical spine. Because muscle pain is a deep somatic pain, it can also cause central excitatory effects through sensory, motor or autonomic systems (dizziness or ringing).
