i would really like to hear from anybody
who has had a tmj removed and is now
living without this joint. I had a rib
graft and titanium joint fitted, both
unsuccessful. So at the moment I have no
left tmj and am finding it difficult and
painful to live with. Simple things like
eating, talking for any length of time are
a nightmare. I would like to speak to
someone who is is in the same position,
and if anyone knows what the way forward
would be as my surgeon is unwilling to
discuss any further procedures until the
scar tissue has healed. I have had 3
operations so far most recent being end
september 2005.
Thanks

Hi Sammie Posted: 01-12-06 08:36am
Just read your post. I have chatted with
at least 2 people who are now living with
no joints and one of them is fine and in
no pain. She has had a lot of surgery and
to see photos of her now youd think that
there was nothing wrong with
her.Unfortunatley I cant give out other
web site tmj forums on this one but keep
looking there are some.The people im
talking about are from the us I know of
none from the uk. If your ever down, I
know i, am just send me a private email,
take care judy.
