I really appreciate all the help I can get so I thank you very much for thatJake, Australia, 20 02 22

Been suffering from a tricky tmj disorder for 3 years and the pain has been hectic I was able to get some muscle relax meds for the first time from this clinic something doctors won't even suggest me with. I really appreciate all the help I can get so I thank you very much for that. Though I am frustrated with my MRI results.. I've had nothing but pain in my jaw for the past 3 years, constant daily muscle tension and headache. My jaw deflects to my left from all the tension.. shoulder pain.. neck pain. I have all of the symptoms of a tmj disorder after getting a wisdom tooth removed from a different dentist place. After 3 years of getting messed around by dentists, specialistss, and doctors only now the dentist say its time to get a splint made because of grinding but they don't know if it gonna solve the problem. I was told MRI scans are the golden choice but the MRI results came back with no issues with tmj... WHAT????? This exhausting life changing situation spending so much money on dentists, specialists, even therapy.. just so after 3 years the MRI shows nothing and I get offered a 500 dollar splint and have no idea if it's even gonna work?? I'm literally out of options and the pain can become unbearable at times an have been going insane. I have no idea what I can do and pray that a mouth guard helps.

I finally found this clinic that really cares about its patientsS, Australia, 17 06 26

I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic and Dr Karn. After searching and visiting a few orthodontists and dentists for my son, I finally found this clinic that really cares about its patients. They are very supportive and listen to us and do their best to meet our needs. I am in healthcare, so I have a good understanding of the mouth structures and always find their advice the most relevant. They are accommodating, patient and caring with children. That is exactly why my son did not feel nervous for a procedure that he used to be scared of. He knew he was in caring hands and as a parent, that means a lot.
