Answers:
i would suggest that you see an oral surgeon...sounds to me like your jaw joints are being affected by the misalignment...avoid all hard foods, candy, pretzels, and especially chewing gums of all kinds, they only make the jaw more painful....ask the oral surgeon about a flat plane hard acrylic device that snaps onto your teeth..it immediately takes the stress off the jaw joints and costs about $200...good luck
