Get fit for an NTI device
Recommended by Emily H
NOTHING worked for my TMJ/corresponding head/neck/shoulder pain (though I never tried Botox) until I finally saw an oral surgeon (Dr. Margossian in Burbank) who fit me for an NTI mouthguard (you wear at night but it is NOT a regular nightguard). It 100% solved my problem and I could not rec it harder.

Would you mind sharing who you saw? I’m also in LA :)
@mayafreda
I wear a nightguard for clenching/grinding, would this still prevent damage from that?
@ehirshey
Worked much better for me than a regular nightguard! Keeps your back teeth from touching so you can’t grind.
@mayafreda
So good to know thank you. How was the adjustment to sleeping with it?
@ehirshey
Truly not bad! Like adjusting to wearing any sort of mouthguard
@thatsallfowlkes
How much did this cost? 🧐💸
@ehirshey
It’s been so many years I don’t remember exact cost but it really depends on your diagnosis/insurance (for better or worse).

“My teeth are ground down to nubs and I’ve historically had constant tension headaches but I’ve always been unable to wear a night guard. Dentist recommended this - it clicks on to just the front few teeth so the intrusion is minimal and manageable even if you gag heavy like me”
