Denied
The Board denied the motion for revision of a September 2011 rating decision that awarded service connection for trauma to the face and jaw, finding no clear and unmistakable error.
The deciding factor: The VA Regional Office did not commit a clear and unmistakable error in the September 2011 rating decision as it properly applied the law at the time regarding the Veteran's TMJ disability without objective evidence of pain on motion.
