Ive Suffered Long Enough...cant Someone Help Me Please?!?!? Posted: 01-02-07 13:47pm
Two weeks after my eldest son was born in
1998, I awoke and my jaw cracked really
loudly!! The doctors said it was just it
dislocating...But every few months after
that it kept going and felt like it had
come out..But a good hard slap always got
it back into place.
After three long hellish years of this, it
finally stopped opening fully altogether.
The doctors and dentists kept bouncing me
back and forth saying they couldn't do
anything until the other had seen me!!
Eventually I was referred to a specialist
who told me my teeth had corroded (due to
a problem when I was pregnant with my
second son) after he was born I was told I
could either have them all out or have the
work done over the space of a couple of
years. I chose teeth out. But once out
I was told they could have done all sorts
while under anestetic. But they then had
to do the dentures because I couldnt open
my mouth properly.
Now I am doomed to a life without teeth,
because all dentures hurt my jaw and never
fit properly no matter how many try ins I
have, and not being able to eat, along
side having intense jaw pain when I use my
mouth too much. I've been told the jaw
joint is now flat and there is nothing
they can do. Ive exhausted all doctors,
dentists and specialists...Not forgetting
to mention the internet! yet I
have heard an operation could help my jaw.
Has anyone got any ideas??? I really
need help!
