Can anyone recommend a TMJ specialist or just a good, trustworthy dentist? I have issues with TMJ (basically pain and tension in the jaw joint), but I'm having trouble finding someone to treat it. I'm looking for a conservative treatment, like a splint or something, versus braces and surgery, etc.
Because TMJ treatment can be expensive and it seems like there are quacks out there wanting to take advantage of people in pain, if possible I'd like a personal recommendation from someone who has successfully treated their TMJ. Currently, I don't even have a dentist in Indianapolis so I'd take a recommendation there if you've been to one you like.
Any area of the city is fairly convenient for me. Thanks!

I would appreciate very much if people in the Indy area could let me know your dentist name and phone number? I have a tooth that I believe is about to abcess and need to get established with one here. Thanks in advance. ;)
