This video made me cry. I experienced every single thing you discussed except for the sleep apnea (as far as I know!). I always feel like I’m crazy or doing it to myself. You helped me understand that I didn’t bring this upon myself and it’s not my fault. Thank you so much for this information. Now I feel like there must be something I can do to at least work on the tongue posture. Is there anything that can be done about narrow palate on a full grown adult? TMJD caused me to have to give up singing, which was my life’s one true passion, and it causes me so much suffering both physical and psychological. Thank you for taking this condition seriously and with curiosity. I am so happy to have found your channel. Bless you I wish all the best in the world for you.
Thank you for your kind words and sorry to hear you’re going through this. The tongue posture question is not a quick one to answer. If you’d like, you can set up a zoom meeting with me by emailing my assistant Alex at patientcare@tmjdentaldoc.com
Hi Dr. Priya! Becasue of this vid i was able to sleep last night comfortably without grinding. Was diagnosed with TMJ a couple of weeks ago. And every night my mouth or teeth is like moving i thought its best to open your mouth a little to avoid touching your teeth. This vid saves my life. Thanks and God bless. 🇵🇭
I have a tongue tie and a deep bite. I went to the doctor due to pain a while ago and was told I have tmjd. I got sent to get an X-ray and it came back perfectly normal …. My jaw is not normal . Im going back to see the doctor soon. Im constantly stressed , I have neck pain, I get migraines, I have anxiety as well and clinche my teeth together so hard :/ Do you have any advice? I don’t want to waste anymore time on a doctor apportionment. Thank you so much for these videos you’re so informative and helpful. ❤️
@@theTMJdoc He should see you! Do you have any videos on what orthotics you use? Or do you have any courses that you teach for that? I am a dentist in Ottawa who provides tongue tie release with myofunctional therapy, airway evaluation and treatment.
Very informative video. Even I have tongue tie, grind teeth at night and started with TMJ problem! I'm 20 and today I operated my tongue tie. Also undergoing braces treatment and my dentist has suggested to use rubberbands to restrict jaw moment and massage the TMJ area. Hope it helps me. Anything else I should do to get rid of these problems?
@@anannyadesai1706 without myofunctional therapy before and after, the tongue tie release may not help. And tmj symptoms don’t typically go away without orthotics, myofascial release, and osteopathic manual jaw manipulation in my experience unfortunately.
This is such a great video! I have sleeping issues (no tongue tie) but I have always assumed it's stress-related. I don't have any other TMJ related problems though, do you think it's worth getting a consult?
I literally have every issue you mentioned except jaw locked shut. Is there anything I can do to fix this withought surgery like some stretching or exercises or mowing or somthing along those lines?
I wish there was an easy way to fix this through stretches or Mewing. The way we treat TMJD is with orthotics, myofascial release, and osteopathic jaw manipulation & even then, it can take 4-6 months with weekly or bi-weekly appointments for symptoms to resolve.
I had my widsom teeth taking out I started noticing jaw clicking and headaches now I feel like certain words can’t be pronounced correctly my mouth moves in a weird or feels force when speaking.. I do have a tongue and a cross bite I wonder if tongue tie can cause issues with speaking
I now live in Costa Rica and have been struggling with trigeminal neuralgia for 3 years. Doctor art Parker used to be my dentist and his assistant used to do cranial work on me back in the nineties. If I come back to Oregon for some medical care on my trigeminal neuraljah how long would I need to be there to get the proper nightguard and some cranial Work?
Dr Art Parker is my mentor. I bought his practice and do the same work. If you’d like to come in from out of town for treatment, it’s usually easiest to set up a zoom meeting first. you can email the office to do so: Patientcare@tmjdentaldoc.com
Hi Dr Mistry, I have a slight tongue tie. I dont breath through my mouth, my tongue rests on my upper jaw. But my frenulumI is tight, and forward to the front end of my tounge. I did have braces and had to get two upper molers removed to bring my teeth back. I landed on your page because i was looking into tongue tie release reviews. I do snore, I have not gotten a sleep study. I also grind my teeth at night. But i am wondering if i would benefit from seeing a tmj doctor (I live in Canada, Ontario) or if i should get a tongue tie release procedure. I dont know which one would help my snoring. Please help!
A tongue tie could be restricting movement in your head, neck and farther down the postural chain without you even realizing it. Having said that, many people live their whole lives with an undiagnosed and untreated tongue tie and are fine.
I’m 33 years old and have been suffering from TMJD for a year including vertigo that will not go away. I’ve already tried orthotics and splints. Can a tongue tie release help me get rid of my symptoms?
Thank you for the information doctor, is it too late to go for tounge tie correction at the age of 29? I have a problem of breathing through mouth at night and also I have deviated nasal septum
Hi Akhil and thank you for your comment. It’s never too late! You can pursue treatment but it should be done in a specific order: 1. Establish good nasal breathing - see an ENT for this. It may require surgical correction. 2. Myofunctional therapy before tongue release 3. Tongue release 4. Myofunctional therapy after tongue release Hope this helps!
Recently started getting bad jaw pain and it feels very tight also the muscles in the back of my neck …I struggle with anxiety i teeth grind and now it feels like the skin under my tongue is tight and makes it seem like I slur my speech it’s hard to pronounce S’s ….I got so worried I went to ER they did CT scan or head and Brain to check for tumor or stroke all was fine ….can you give me advice
I'm sorry but I can't give much advice without examining you in person. You can check out some of my videos as they have helped many people with pain - these are under my youtube playlist called "tmj exercises/muscle releases".
Wow Adrian this is exactly what I’m dealing with right now! Freaking outthinking I have MS or ALS. Encouraging to hear this from you and also unfortunate as I can relate to the pain and worry.
@@bradh7627 ya bro don’t over think it I went to a TMJ specialist who took scans of my teeth and made me a splint not to mention my speech started going back to normal recently but I do go for my splint on march 3rd which will fix the whole issue over all
@@theTMJdoc do u think an airway issue could cause the tongue to position itself forward, creating the open bite. I have been trying to find out why i developed an open bite in adulthood but no one was able to say why (i had a "normal" bite before and was able to touch front teeth), ive met many dentist and orthodontist. They recommended jaw surgery to correct the open bite however i was hesitant due to no explanation on why it developed in the first place. i feel as if tongue thrust is not really as much an issue as resting tongue posture. my theory was airway related and that the tongue constantly rested forward. or its as u said, joint deterioration (which is what i'm scared about). i wanted to get imaging from an oral surgeon but its been difficult due to insurance issues.
if you have any suggestions i would greatly appreciate it as ive been struggling with this for many years with no real solution. again, thanks so much for the videos and responses, i feel that everyone watching is truly grateful for the content you provide as unfortunately there is a lack of knowledge on some of these issues and many patients dont get the help they need.
Certain extrations retractio 6:36 n cases should not be done in orthodontics I think that's what you mean and have early orthodontic tratment to avoid extractions.
Thanks allot for this information. I am 22, having TMJ problem since 2016 with tong tie and mild sleep apnea. What would be treatment on it? I am not getting any solution on this and pain is rising day by day.
Sorry you’re going through this! We would treat this by first treating and eliminating your pain with an orthotic. Once the pain is gone, we would recommend tongue tie release and sleep test to see if the orthotic is enough to get you adequate oxygen. If it’s not we would then make an appliance that treats the TMJD and the oxygen saturation. Where do you live? Where is your pain?

👍🏼 What happens if you don't fix tongue tie?
A tongue tie could be restricting movement in your head, neck and farther down the postural chain without you even realizing it. Having said that, many people live their whole lives with an undiagnosed and untreated tongue tie and are fine.
I’m 33 years old and have been suffering from TMJD for a year including vertigo that will not go away. I’ve already tried orthotics and splints. Can a tongue tie release help me get rid of my symptoms?
No, a tongue tie release alone will likely not help with tmjd symptoms. Have you tried myofunctional therapy and/or seeing an osteopath?
Thank you for the information doctor, is it too late to go for tounge tie correction at the age of 29? I have a problem of breathing through mouth at night and also I have deviated nasal septum

awesome video thanks. Can you do a a video on open bite and treatment. have you ever heard of one developing in adulthood (mid 20s).
Open bites typically develop with tongue thrust OR due to joint deterioration.

Does a tongue tie stretch out for an infancy? Is a division necessary?
A restricted tongue does not typically "stretch out" or gain full mobility on its own.
@@theTMJdoc would a bottle fed baby going for division lead to scarring
Can tongue tie and tmj cause tension in back of the tongue after eating on that side?
Yes they can.
Can a tongue tie get in the way when making a tmj splint?
No :)
So how do you fix it?
Fix which issue specifically?
If you have a tongue tie.
Thanks allot for this information.
