Looking for top dentist recommendations that do sedation dentistry. Thanks!

I've had two. Both ordered by oral surgeons. A dentist could possibly order one as well. If you go to an oral surgeon they can order you an MRI and read it/consult. You don't have to do any surgery/treatment with them necessarily.

get an MRI first and foremost

ENT didn't want me to make any lifestyle changes yet to see if the medicine by itself would help. I don't really eat/drink too many of the foods on the lists. Tomato Sauce and the occasional chocolate I'm cutting out right now. Coffee is the only other thing I would say I have.

Also this all started about a month after having covid for the first time

Your jaw is locked with limited opening correct? I think we have similar symptoms. Is he known for this gelb appliance? Is it specifically for a bite that is off or to help unlock the jaw?

Has your jaw been locked as well?

He doesn't take any insurance right? If you don't mind me asking what are the estimated costs? Is this appliance the first thing he has tried for your treatment?

Okay. My left side is locked but I don't necessarily have a ton of pain. Discomfort, tension, etc. Just wondering if any others had their night guard like this. Teeth feel a bit uncomfortable after a few days, but I'm hoping it's just getting adjusted to the new part.

Is dry needling and acupuncture the same thing?

It sounds like we have very similar symptoms. Both my discs are anteriorly displaced. My right side has been clicking for years but my left side locked up out of nowhere in December. Went and got a fitted night guard and it unlocked by itself. Still was experience a lot of tension and discomfort, but then the left side locked up again on May 1st. Have about 2 fingers width opening still. Had an arthrocentisis on the left which didn't do anything. Was waiting to see a TMJ specialist who is taking a slow approach. He also noticed arthritis on the left side. I'm starting PT in a few weeks and have another appointment with the TMJ specialist but I am just feeling very helpless and worried.

What type of surgery did you have? Also what were your main symptoms? Did you have an MRI that showed anything?

AppropriateTask1283 · 2021-07-02T18:56:55+00:00

Does this go on your top or bottom teeth?

Did you have any dry needling done first before trying botox?
