Agreed and I’m the meantime get checked at an urgent care if you need pain medication until you can get seen by a specialist.

I went to a chiropractor for TMJ 20 years ago and I found it to be very proactive and have had minimal issues since.

The urgent care can also refer you to a specialist

I went through urgent care to get a referral for both an MRI and to an orthopedic when I hurt my knee last year. Just beware that if your insurance requires referrals for specialists you will need to find a PCP
