In the past two years, I have removed 3 of my 4 wisdom teeth. I never thought I needed to removed them, because they were growing in straight and were not affecting anything else, but I removed them anyway. Now, I still have one wisdom tooth left but my jaw feels unaligned. My back molars no longer meet like they used to, and when I wake up every morning my jaw aches, sometimes all day, and sometimes results in headaches. For example, if I set my jaw down in a position that only one side of my molars meet then I am unable to open my jaw all the way, but if I realign it to set down on the opposite side, I can move it freely. The issue is that I'm a student about to graduate college with only the military Tricare Standard insurance for dependents, which does not cover dental insurance. So I need to know if I need any procedure done, or just a simple night guard to help the sleep discomfort.

you should visit the dentist if he thinks that your teeth are not meeting properly and they need adjustment, he will do that or he will give you the night guard. it looks like from your symptoms that you are having the problem of bruxism. for more information on bruxism you can visit the following link http://www.identalhub.com/ArticleSubCate…
