Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / February 2008Who do I see for TMJ/NTS?
I'm a clencher, and my bite keeps changing, as well as developing a gap between the two front bottom teeth, where there was none before. Is the dentist the first one I should see, or should I go to an oral surgeon? My dentist has blown me off whenever I wanted to discuss it, so obviously I will be finding a new dentist - but where do I go first? Go to www.nti-tss.com and search for a dentist near you.

Thanks, already have done that, and in fact have an appointment set. But I wanted to make sure I wasn't wasting my time and instead should be seeing an oral surgeon....I take it you think I should see the dentist first. The OMFS is not trained to provide early intervention. He is wonderfully trained to help out in special cases. See the GP first.

This is a 'condition' that you need to be very careful what you ask for when being 'treated'. You can get much more (and sometimes much less) than you really need. It also isn't a disease that can be 'cured'. It is a condition that can usually be controlled. An experienced NTI dentist is certainly the best place to start.

What are you thinking that the surgeon would do for your situation?
