[Clayton nods along, still deep in thought. Like House has pointed out, this is almost too much information now. A veritable cocktail of new and exciting drugs and alternative treatments could have been taken by this man before he finally showed up at the hospital. But at least one of those interactions ought to have been picked up by the other tests they did...all but that pesky MRI.]
[At a loss, Clayton once again finds himself approaching this case from a personality angle. The patient sounds like someone who doesn't trust doctors much, or doesn't put a lot of stock in them, if he was willing to go to every other type of medicine man in town before turning himself in to the ER. The fact that he would eventually resort to a hospital even after all of that mess just confirms Clayton's suspicions that whatever was going on with this teeth-grinding must have been very significant.]
[It also means that he hasn't been back to get that jaw plate checked on in half a year.]
...House, I got nothin'. [Clayton slumps backwards, baffled.] Did y'all at least take a look at his jaw while you had 'em? Sounds like it was causin' him a lot a trouble.
