Report
We met in therapy where I was recovering from a near-fatal fall accident 18 months before, and, in conversation, I told you that I was very lax about my teeth and that I had never been checked by a dentist after my fall.
I came to you for a checkup/cleaning, etc. and you then discovered that my teeth were ground down and that I showed symptoms of TMJ.
I was not happy to hear that, however, I realized that I did grind my teeth a lot and decided to go for the treatment program.
I do not remember much pain involved with the measuring, x-rays, castings, etc. the program was a combination of day and night appliances and exercises.

Wisdom Tooth Removal
Report
It is good to know that wisdom teeth rarely cause pain unless there is something wrong and, in most cases, your dentist may recommend wisdom teeth removal.
Cavity: Cavities are prone to specific places such as tight spaces between teeth where it is hard to clean.
As wisdom teeth grow close to other teeth, this creates a space for cavities to form.
Pain Due to Growth of Wisdom Teeth: If your wisdom teeth are coming out or growing it may be breaking through the gums, causing soreness or pain.
You may have problems biting, chewing and even opening your mouth.
