When I do the resisted under chin opening with my thumb, should I be looking in a mirror to make sure i’m not deviating too much? What is this exercise good for?

Hello, I have been a patient at penns tmj center for about 3-4 years now. I’ve tried plenty of non surgical interventions per their recommendation but have only gotten worse. I scheduled an appointment to discuss surgical options, does anyone have experience there? I’m interested in arthroscopy but afraid they will only want to do arthrocentesis first. They didn’t see anything on my mri’s from years ago that would require surgery, not sure if they will send me for more imaging. I’m just worried they won’t take me serious and continue to offer non surgical solutions.
