I can really only repeat what has been said already by Dr. Brett Hester, a dentist in Valdosta, GA regarding dental pain management. The use of an oral appliance will help to reduce the strain on jaw joints and reduce pain in patients who experience TMJ. I think The TMJ Appliance is what is being discussed here. It is a prefabricated, soft and flexible appliance that is fitted by the patient to aid in the diagnosis of TMJ dysfunction and provide symptom relief.
