Hi Kittencat:
I've got part of that problem - my teeth also don't line up, except I don't feel the pain in my jaw, I feel it in my teeth and gums.
My problem started with having 2 fillings re-done close to 2 years ago. Just recently I was diagnosed. I was told the condyle on my right side is forward and the one on my left side is very far back. I knew after my fillings were done that my bite was completely off, but didn't know for a very long time why. I had one of the fillings re-done, and the other one adjusted several times. I've got an appt with a neuromuscular dentist in 2 weeks and I'm hoping he can get everything back to normal, with splint therapy.
Good luck. I hope you have a good dentist who's able to help.
Happy 4th,
Arleen

Has anyone else's jaw shifted to one side? 
One dr. said that my loose ligaments allow the joint to move "around" the restriction - and this is why I don't lock - but have tremendous pain -noise and spasm. It's the jaw taking a 'detour' to get where it wants.... does that makes sense?
