Of course, being a music major, I know absolutely JACK concerning medical
science (other than the fact that my brain is MIA), but I must ask...if
this is the cause of jaw pain, wouldn't it be plausible (albiet painful)
to solve the problem by pulling the wisdom molars? I mean...wouldn't this
be beneficial in the long run (musically and otherwise)?

Of course, since I'm absolutely clueless here, so feel free to whack me on
the pate with a jimmystick and tell me to shut up....unless you're just as
clueless as me and whack me just because you can....JOSHUA....
