Spoke with Navy's St Paul Dentist - TMJ Disorder -TemporoMandibular Joint Message Board

Navy, are you out there? I spoke with your FJO dentist on the phone. He thinks he can help me (is there anyone he thinks he CAN'T help?). He sounds like a real firebrand. I'd be flying in from Boston.

Anyway, I've followed your ups and downs on this board. Also, East Coast's ups and downs.

I've been through 2 1/2 failed full mouth reconstructions, wasted over $150K, and my desperation (help! help!) is currently playing extreme tug-of-war with my cynicism (stay home! fuggedaboutit!)

The last posts I've seen of yours were from July '04. How's your progress? Are you still in Stage I, or have you started Stage II?

Unbelievable how far dentists would go to make money. After all that you have through it is very understandable that you become very skeptical and cynical. Many TMJ sufferers feel like you. Good luck with this St Paul dentist. I hope he can help you.
