Q: neuromuscular dentistry effectiveness ?

Hi All,

I have TMD and it's severely impacting my ability to enjoy life. Between the sinus pain, excruciating headaches, toothaches, face-aches, and jaw-aches, I sometimes feel like driving my car into a telephone pole.

I have seen an ENT, two dentists, a chiropractor, a maxillofacial surgeon, a psychologist and a psychiatrist (after the maxillofacial surgeon told me that it was all in my head). None of them have helped me. My latest attempt to find relief has lead me to a neuromuscular dentist, however, it's not covered by my insurance, and the cost is considerable.

If anyone out there has received any type of TMD therapy, particularly neuromuscualr therapy, that worked for them, please get back to me.

Thanks

Thanks!
I found a dentist and had a consult. The cost is $3700 for a dental orthotic and is (of course) not covered by any insurance.

Does this sound about right to you?
