Chronic jaw pain can be incredibly frustrating and quite upsetting for most people. For many patients, the most difficult part is not just the pain itself, it’s the worry and uncertainty surrounding it.
Scans can look normal, symptoms change over time, pain can even move between the jaw, temples, ears, neck and teeth.
Unfortunately, there may not be one single identifiable cause. BUT that doesn’t mean the pain isn’t real. AND it doesn’t mean nothing can be done.
