Great advice. I am suffering from tension headache I'm getting a tmj orthotic made next week. And I have been diagnosed with mild to moderate sleep apnea and already have a sleep apnoea splint. Thank you

[@theTMJdoc]

@@stevedavid3368 you’re so welcome!

[@julianvelez1796]

Thank you for all the help, knowledge and power you have given your people like me. You have truly made me feel like I have some type of control and hope over my symptoms now, It’s an uphill battle but It’s one I can now fight. Do you have any recommendations for a dentist like you in the Chicago are?

[@theTMJdoc]

I’m sorry I don’t!

[@losco8022]

Wow you are so gorgeous, so beautiful. And a skillful doctor too

[@theTMJdoc]

Wow, thank you!

[@gabiramirez499]

This is so good! I have been looking at additional treatments on top of my cpap. I am not quite sure I have TMJ, but do you think using a TMJ orthotic would still be helpful for people with obstructive sleep apnea? I know for sure now I have bad tongue posture.

[@theTMJdoc]

Yes it could be, depending on your symptoms.

[@AGVenge]

Doctors told me my sleep apnea was so severe and my nose/throat area was so narrow, that a MAD would never suffice. I used CPAP for a whole year. What an absolute indescribable nightmare. Imagine how much distress sleep apnea can bring to your life. Triple that from the problems brought about by using CPAP. I asked my dentist for a night guard as I grind my teeth. He made a MAD for me. Now my sleep apnea is perfectly treated, completely opposite what my expert sleep apnea doctor told me. I wish I had the bravery to try out MAD first... Hope you guys will too. If it works, it works.

[@theTMJdoc]

@@AGVenge I’m glad you found something that works for you! :)

[@baseballer181]

Do you use MAD and CPAP?

[@shashankpc2911]

Sir how many days or months It took for you to get adjusted to obstructive sleep apnea mouthpiece... It is very discomforting and causes moderate pain in jaw area because it pulls the lower jaw slightly forward to open the airway....

[@AGVenge]

@@shashankpc2911 a week I think. But it's much much less of a hell compared to CPAP, so for me it was a massive relief

[@ashiqueikbal3192]

My question is K7 bite night appliance and night appliance are same?

[@theTMJdoc]

No they’re not

[@Lexweecon]

Hi Doc Priya! I love and appreciate your videos. Have any of your TMD patients experienced hypersalivation? It’s an uncommon symptom that only a few people experience. Do you know how to treat it?

[@theTMJdoc]

No im sorry I don’t have a solution for this!

[@Lexweecon]

Doc Priya, how do we know if a splint is working or well made?

[@theTMJdoc]

@@Lexweecon that must be assessed by an experienced TMJ dentist. But a rule of thumb is that if it’s helping you to feel better, it’s likely working.

[@TechWookie]

Can you please provide references for dentist that use similar methods to you in Denver? None of the dentists in my area seem to know how to treat TMJ properly.

[@theTMJdoc]

I’m sorry but I don’t know anyone there

[@depak741]

[@spiscold50]

[@theTMJdoc]

I’m sorry but I don’t know anyone there. I’m in Vancouver, Washington - near Portland, Oregon.

[@titaniumgaming9222]

Dr as a child i always had very defined features and jaws as i grew older i developed tmj problems ( clicking and popping ) in the left side of my jaw and slowly crept to the right side as well because of this I am suffering from a recessed chin and lower jaw i told my dentist about this and he made me a night guard ( altho i dont clenching my teeth out of habit ) through research i have found that the recession in my face has occurred from bending of the condyles ( which my mouth guard worsened ) also to add that after the mouth guard was out into place i have developed the habit of clenching my jaw subconsciously can you please tell me what to do to stop and fix this recession of the chin mandible and ramus note to add that i have a wide palate and breathe through my nose your advice on how i can straighten my condyles and stop the recession of the lower jaw will be much appreciated

I’m sorry but there’s no way I can answer this without follow up questions and discussion. If you’d like you can set up an online consultation with me using this link 😊🙏🏼 tmjdentaldoc.janeapp.com/#/staff_member/1/treatment/8

[@mucahitens6955]

Thanks for the video, I had a question; I saw on the internet that lateral movement of the jaw is harmful and causes tmj... Is it true?

[@theTMJdoc]

Too much lateral movement will irritate the jaw joints.

[@v4ursmile]

Whats the relation between sleep apnoea and tmj disorders ?

[@PEN15ISHARD]

Hi Doc, Can all this orthotics affects your bite?

[@theTMJdoc]

Yes they can!

[@vdlva8113]

Would you be able to recommend tmj professionals in other countries? If I'm from another country can I get a tmj orthopedic with the prescription?

[@theTMJdoc]

I don’t know of people in other countries, sorry!

[@Omiiii-h6g]

Where do I get a Orthotic in New York area specifically Westchester? Thank you so much I just want to fix my facial assymetry and alieve my TMJ🙏🏽

[@Mark-ql5ni]

Dr Hanswirth is the only one I know who was recommended to me by a TMJ Dentist that retired. It is not cheap though dude, several thousand dollars

[@gurlwhowants2dj]

Can you be given a TMJ orthnic without having TMJ but only have sleep apnea? Could a dentist recommend it so the person can have more movement with their mouth?

[@bwhitmc7309]

Can a TMJ orthotic cause you to get more neck tension and shoulder, clavicle tension?

[@theTMJdoc]

It shouldn’t!

[@VedikaMithu]

[@priyameshram9910]

Mam i have tmj from 1.5 years now and i forgot my tongue rest position and I have been placing my tongue on the upper palette from 1.5 year but recently i visited another dentist because previous treatment doesnt reduce my pain now recent dentist told me to open the mouth wide then stick the tongue to the upper paletter but at the end of the palette then close the mouth slowly and then your tongue naturally rest on the lower side behind the teeth and thats your proper tongue position so is it good position or not please tell me??????? I am from INDIA

[@Mark-ql5ni]

It's hard to find a good sleep apnea doctor, a lot of them I don't trust it just seems like they don't have the attention to detail, their answers don't seem nuanced or the level of care is not taken holistically in a way that makes me trust them. Their answers are way too black and white in my experience with the ones I went to.

[@theTMJdoc]

Come see me!!

@@theTMJdoc I wish! You're a blessing to those in your area im sure, but I live on the other coast haha :/
