Change in side of chewing due to pain in the molars to come out Here we can see a patient whose usual chewing side is the left side, but he has changed it to the right side due to a pain in the molars (see orthopantomography). This change has caused occlusal interferences (CP), which at the same time force the malpositioning of the jaw producing TMD symptoms.
