hey!....
i enlisted into the navy, i ship in 5 months. i was wondering if TMJ(Temporomandibular joint disorder ) would disqualify me? its not bad, it doesnt hurt. has anyone ever got DQ'd from TMJ? or does anyone have it and went through boot camp fine? can i get waiver for it?
thank u...
 
TMJ is not a disorder, it's more along the lines that you grind your teeth while sleeping. True TMJ is from trauma or surgery. It's not even worth mentioning...
 
i have TMJ, and it does not affect me at all. i actaully went to the dentist and got a mouth guard for it. its not a medical condition that will get in the way. my jaw actually locks and i have to unlock it, but it does not keep me from doing my job,
