Ahh.,.....you know me already all too well!! Yes, I better wait on the mouth guard. Question: Do you suggest a guard made from the dentist or one from a TMJ specialist? I am not saying I have TMJ, but I have been reading (you know me) about this and it seems that some sites suggest a TMJ specialist who does a special guard? I am not sure and just wondering your opinion.

No, stress is not good. I had a basal cell carcinoma removed from my forehead in Sept this year and then this wisdom tooth (bad timing) and everything was just spiraling out of control (emotionally) so I think that is why I get myself so worried about this extraction and infection and healing and and and........

Too many "what ifs?"

Thanks~
