TMJ: Please see your Dentist. Dislocated jaw may have been reduced, but disc may still be out of place. Something's causing your pain. Go find out what. We can't examine you over the computer, you need to see your Dentist.

See expert: Very comples problem. See TMJ expert for management. 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.
