i went to the dentist today...

to get the crown started for the tooth that will never stop. (the one I had a root canal on last month).

The assistant was really really hard on my jaw. She was pulling on it. I have TMJ- it flares up from time to time, and usually the dentist allows me to take a break, checks in, etc.

Well today my jaw locked open not once but three times.  The dentist had to manipulate my jaw to close.  I tried not to freak out, but all I could think about was never being able to close my mouth again.

i'm afraid to yawn now....

  • Ouch!

    You always hope that professionals have it together, but in the case of this assistant I wonder.

  • Ugh! I feel for ya and I would be the same way! I have TMJ too and last week it started to give me major issues and one night I opened my mouth just to eat some soup and I heard a pop and once I closed my mouth I couldn't open it!! After almost 5 hours of heat/ice I still couldn't open it and finally had to go to the ER! It's soooo not fun having TMJ!!  But I grind my teeth at night and apparently I have been doing that a lot lately!  So good luck to you!! I hope you have better luck with it than I have been having with it!!
  • Uh, that sounds terrible. I hope you are feeling better!
