OMFS in Virginia/DC area?

#1 Post by cookiechoco »

Hi all. I'm new to the forum & so this is my first post (required). I was wondering if anyone had any experience with oral surgeons in VA/DC... I think I might benefit from having surgery due to some severe chronic pain in my jaw that I have (one side will not align no matter what I do & is always cracking/crunching/throbbing) that gives me migraine headaches & affects my daily life. I have another chronic pain disorder (not at all related to my teeth or bones) & the compounded effect of these disorders has really rendered it difficult to make it through my daily life. However, my PC doctor & several dentists/orthos have been very dismissive of my pain & kinda just shrugged & all gave me the same list of conservative ways to relieve my tmj symptoms (that I already do!). If you have any experience with a provider/oral surgeon that has been helpful & compassionate in my area, please comment or message me. I'm really desperate for a doctor that will actually listen.
