Dental - February 2007

I believe I could have "TMJ" "(Temporomandibular Joint). My mother think's I'm just full of it.That's it's all in my mind.

But I don't think so,cause of some of symptoms of "TMJ" like....

*Headaches "I have alot of them"
*Ringing in the ears "at times"
*Dizziness "I feel like I'ma black out at times"
**those are the ones I been having alot for the past year...

Now since 2 days ago when I woke up I'm having now...

Some Soreness and tightness around my right side on of my Jaw and Throat..and some head headaches and dizziness..

I can't open my mouth normal..like to brush my teeth and tongue, its hard to, or even eat... I have to have lil bites slowly...I also feel like my uper teeth stick out a lil more,and my lower teeth are pull back a lil .. which doesn't feel good at all when I talk..it's very uncomfortable..its like I can't stand it..

I been puttin some bengay on around the right side of my jaw and throat,cause my mom said it will losin up the muscles..

I don't know if it is TMJ..My mom says its not..But if you guys think it is..

What can I do??? How long does it last??? How can I treat it??? So my jaw can get back to NORMAL, "to where i can eat rite, brush my teeth right??" or will it never go back to normal?? And last "does bengay help it???"

I'm looking for a teeth whitening kit that utilizes lab-created bleaching trays and 22% carbamide peroxide gel. I would like for the price to be around $100 if possible. It is also important that it be a reputable online dealer and not some "fly-by-night" reseller. I'm hoping someone, on Yahoo Answers, that has already had a good experience purchasing/using a teeth whitening system from the Internet will point me in the right direction.

I just realized that when I push my 2 front teeth together and then push them with my tongue I can feel them move apart. I was at the dentist a month ago and he didnt say anything. How serious is this?

I wonder cuz it seems like it automatically make the teeths move when you wear next invisalign cuz they are designed in advance. Anyway you need to wear it , finally you teeth will be moved to fit the invisalign tray. cuz i don't wear all twenty-two hours.
