Thanks for your query. As far as the problem with your jaw joint and muscle is concerned, you need to get some radiographs like orthopantomograph and CBCT done to confirm the diagnosis. So you consult an oral and maxillofacial surgeon rather than ENT surgeon. I hope I have answered your question. Take care.

Well lybrate-user minor malalignment of the jaws can be corrected without surgery however the severe ones normally require surgical intervention. I will need to see your photographs and radiographs before giving you any specific suggestion. Hope you unferstand.
