Guest guest Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 I currently have daily discomfort in the muscles on the left and right side of my jaw. My orthodontist says it results from my jaw (and bite) being off-center and that while these muscles would like to work one way, my bad bite is working them another way and - therefore - overworking them. I'm just wondering how many people out there have gotten relief from overworked jaw muscles as a result of this surgery? I'm only 26 and my ortho says it is rare for someone my age to experience this jaw-muscle pain. -nate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
