Hello,

First, I'm wondering if you would mind cross-posting your thread to
sci.med.dentistry ... There are a number of dentists there whom I think
would be interested in discussing this with you and smd's readers.

And secondly, since you're seeing dentists associated with UCLA, I'm
assuming you could make a trip to San Diego for an opinion with Dr.
Boyd. Since you've been prescribed an NTI, and you did not find the
results effective, maybe a visit to see him (the inventor) is in order
since he's only a couple hours away from LA.

Hoping to see the thread cross-posted to sci.med.dentistry

BTW, you said a neurologist prescribed the NTI. Who actually made the
NTI and followed your progress with it?

You should realize, if you already don't, that the device should be
reevaluated. What have the "3 TMJ specialists" said about the NTI?

The "3 TMJ specialists" ... what makes them so special anyway?
