davis_squareDoes anyone here suffer from, or have a loved one, who suffers from TMJ?
Dental insurance won't cover a mouth guard (most common treatment) and medical insurance will cover consultation, x-rays, MRIs with a medical doctor...but also will not cover cost of a mouth guard. It's so frustrating, because mouth guards designed for TMJ range from $500-1,000, typically.
Does anyone recommend anyone in the area that is competent, friendly, and semi-affordable? Even if your person does not meet all criteria, I'd love to know!
