so sorry you are going through that ... I keep putting off desperately needed dental work for similar reasons, not sure what to do there

have you tried either heat or ice packs duing treatment to see if they have any impact (sometimes my jaw prefers ice to heat and sometimes the other way) ... once i had a dentist who helped a bit by massaging my jaw during treatment and letting me rest it as much as possible but haven't found anyone else who really understands this ... wish there was an easier solution for all of us when it comes to dental treatment
