Try Massage therapy. Find a good neuromuscular therapist in your area who does anterior neck and TMJ work. First develop some trust with them for a few sessions, focusing on your neck area( this alone will help TMJ) and then let them work on your jaw. There is an external and internal part of the therapy. The therapist will of course wear gloves for that part. This really works. I've had it done many times and I'm a neuromuscular therapist myself. If you live in GA I can recommend several people.
Hi.
I am new here too. I just saw a chiropracor this morning and he seems very confident that he can help me. Whatever he did, it seemed to help for now. And OH did it feel GOOD!
Good luck.

You need to get an orthodontist who specializes in TMJ. Also start seeing a chiro and get massages regularly. Check in your city to see if there is a Head, Neck and jaw clinc. They specialize in this field. I am getting botox injections in Aug. to help my pain. I have daily constant headaches. i have had tmj for 8 years.
