Has anybody ever heard of this. My daughter was recently diagnosed with this so has anybody else been diagnosed with this, too?

To be honest it sounds like a catch all name the doctor gave you to satisfy you for a while. I could be wrong. Before I was diagnosed they told me polyarthrigia. Which basically meant I had many inflamed joints. Duh! Hope you find some answers.

Try surfing the web using the name "TMJ ARTHROSIS". Another name for jaw is Temporomandibular.

http://www.medscape.com/medline/abstract/1945772. This is a reputable website. Good Luck.

I'm not sure why the link doesn't open. But here is a description of what is says.

Arthrosis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a noninfectious, noninflammatory condition characterized by joint pain, noise (clicking) and abnormal motion.

Unfortunately it doesn't talk about treatment. Wish I could help more.

Good Luck

Nancy
