Hi everybody,
Just thought I give you a update on my condition. My family dentist had grinded my erupted wisdom tooth and the partner wisdom tooth in two appointments. My open bite has closed up now.....I can feel all my molars touching each other, and I don't feel my higher erupted tooth anymore. My jaw has setted down abit since then, not as much tension and muscle spasms. But it's not as good as it was before I had this erupted problem, but at least I am feeling more comfortable with less tension and pain. I had this problem for almost two years, so I guess I will need more time for my muscles to settle down even more. My dentist was great with me.....he worked with me on this problem and made some good progress with it. He wants me to come back again next week and check my bite again and see if I am making more improvements. We will be working on a new splint as well. So, overall the grinding on those two teeth has been beneficial in my case......it has definitely improved my situation in relation to the pain......so I will see if I will have more results from this.
Would apprecitate any feedback from anybody, good or bad.
