TMJ is a joint dysfunction. Something isn’t lining up in the joint. That’s not a nootropic thing. So many of these claims are bunk, straight up. Nootropics did not cure someone’s TMJ.
This space isn’t honest enough, or some people are delusional, or a combination.

I think you are oversimplifying the pathology of TMJ a bit. The NMDA receptor is a quite well-known aspect of TMJ. Moreover, magnesium specifically has been studied in regards to TMJ.
This study discusses the pharmacological treatments of TMJ, and shows magnesium to be the one that did the best.
That doesn't mean targeting the NMDA receptor pharmacologically is going to cure the underlying cause of the TMJ. However, the layperson often equates symptoms to causes. I don't think the OP is literally saying it cured the underlying cause of the TMJ pain, but is more saying the symptoms have improved. It would be more helpful to discuss the differences between underlying causes of things and symptom improvement than to just write off OP altogether.
