a few months ago i went to the doctor cuz i had some pain in my molars. i guess i clench my teeth a lot, one side of my jaw even clicks sometimes, but that's not really the important part.
the important thing is that they referred me to an oral and maxillofacial surgeon for a checkup and some scans/x-rays, but my mom would rather take me to a dentist who's specialized in TMD/TMJ disorders and orofacial pain.
which one should i go to??
and how can i make the most out of this situation?? maybe pretend i have sleep apnea or something so they give me some kind of appliance/idk. i also have a slight overbite, maybe i should bring that up to the doctor and see if it can be corrected, although idk if it's even necessary.
what do you guys think? lmk.
