I am glad you got help!!
My dentist told me that TMJ was an dental problem helped by a PCP.
When my jaw slipped, my TMJ dentist helped me by putting it back in place.
Yikes, it hurt!
Just be careful because it can slip out again.
Good luck!

@ga29 Glad to hear your issue was addressed and is not a problem for you, now. As @grandmar mentioned, it might slip out again. My jaw tends to slip, usually on left side, whenever I open my mouth wide. Fortunately my dental hygienist is aware of it. But it played havoc when I had general anesthesia 22 years ago!

I have similar jaw pain. Thank you for sharing your experience which could be helpful.
