I've had to compleletly renovation the way I put away because of it, no chewy foods, no hard foods etc. It get so bad at times I can't even confer and the pain radiate down my neck and shoulders. What are the treatment plans and what open-handed of doctor do I go see going on for it. My dentist just told me to munch through soft foods and rest my jaw.
