Hi,

Wondering if there is anyone else out there who is either missing a condyle (one side or both) or they are just out of place.

I have an implant that was damaged in a car accident. It is the total jaw prosthesis on left side and since it is damaged they will be removing it. I do hear that some people do well without a condyle on one side but would love to hear from others as well.

Thank you to everyone and I hope all of you are feeling better today

I have at least one, if not both out of place. It hurts like heck and makes it nearly impossible to open my mouth all the way. It needs surgery but alas no $$$ to have it done. So, I just suffer.
