    Not really now, after seeing your scans with notation. Worked with someone else with your problem and severe tinnitus of two years is completely gone. I would start using foam toothpaste - mentioned above. I would avoid using your jaw advancing mouthpiece. Let me know how your dental...

    @BB1, hyperostotic formation at the superior aspect of the left condyle seems to be. Would need to see more scans, but prolonged pressure may have caused very slight non concerning arthritic changes. MRI is best to confirm this. You may have loose connective tissue attached to the posterior...

    @BB1, in our area, the best oral surgeons for this are located downtown. Botulinum toxin into the lateral pterygoids, but also maybe into the medial pterygoids. Would like to see your scans of this area.

This can occur in several ways, but I'm wondering about use of a backpack causing muscle spasms to back, shoulders and neck. More so, if any forward head bending occurred while wearing a backpack.

    @BB1, I saw that you mentioned Sacramento. I also live in Sacramento. I knew of someone with your name with association to a professional career and the outdoors. Please forgive my writing skills as I lost most vision and have severe mouth pain. We have some similar conditions - neck, jaw...
