I think I have tmj but have never been diagnosed. My jaw has been locked up for a week now. I can hardley get my toothbrush in there its locked up so bad.

So do i go to the dentist or the doctors for a diagnosis


Answers:

See your regular dentist, he or she will be able to diagnose TMJ. I have several patients in my practice with TMJ (Iam a Dentist-DMD), if your dentist thinks you need more specialized care they will refer you to a specialist.
