Dental checkups from time to time is a must. You should know the exact situation with your tmj issues and whether it is getting in control or not, checkups so to ensure that it is not increasing. For tmj pain, healthcare provider will tell you about some pain killers and sedatives. Get good treatment and take all the precautions given by them.
