Had etd for over yr. many doctors -inally diagnosed with tmj. they're unsure of cause-poss dental work. how can i get treatment if no def diagnosis?

Get a diagnosis: Suggest you see a specialist, usually an oral surgeon, for diagnostic xrays, study models, and oral evaluation for a more definitive diagnosis. First step is usually anti inflammatory meds and a bite splint.

Don't: Don't get any work done until you get a diagnosis. I would see an ENT and a dentist who treats many TMJ patients. The dentist should start with treatments that are reversible.

Differential diagnos: Go see a dentist who is trained in this area to examine and diagnose. Look up pankey institute great place to locate a dentist.
