I can't say that. As I've said from the beginning, I think you should talk to your Drs about your symptoms and make your choices with them about your treatment. If it doesn't work, you have a direction to go. When you first presented the issue you posted your symptoms and asked if anyone had any ideas on what it could possibly be. Everyone was replying bruxism and TMJD. These were ob yous after the dental work. The only thing I could thing of that should be considered other than the obvious was a movement disorder, due to the abnormal, uncontrollable tongue movements. Not at all to disregard to first and most likely problem which would be related to dental issues. This is why each time I have responded I have said to follow up with your DDS first before moving on to your PCP for further evaluation and referrals.
I am sorry if this was not completey clear.

I tried using a night guard with no improvement in my symptoms, I wonder if it can actually be oromandibular dystonia, when I said tounge sits too foward or too backwards, I am not sure if it is involuntary, It more like my tounge doesnt have a place in my mouth and like my lower jaw moved in a way where my tounge doesnt have a place to be and it touches my teeth/sometimes I cant get to my teeth with it, also when I bite my teeth dont meet properly and make a squeal sound and it makes eating pretty difficult. dentists been unhelpful.
