Should someone with TMJ see a Maxillofacial specialist or Neurologist or both?

    Aside from say a dentist and GP who else should someone who's been diagnosed as having TMJ ideally see? Thanks.

    Perhaps an ENT specialist? Or a Maxfacs person ?

    Really what you want is to identify someone who specialises in TMJ as an interest.
    Thou sorry, I have no idea who that might be!!

    I have seen an ENT specialist already but that was in relation to another issue PND My GP said I probably had PND and referred me to that ENT specialist who said I didn'thave PND but could have issues with sinuses etc - so getting a CAT scan for that in January. He said I may have some gastrosomething or other. Mentioned TMJ to him but he didn't do or say anything - so I reckon I'll need to see a different specialist about that. Will head back to my GP in the New Year and take it from there. Also need to be referred to a specialist to get a possible ADHD diagnosis, (according to my doc I may have ADHD) so it'll be a busy year with numerous things f'ing up. Thanks.
