Do I have TMJ problems (x-ray attached)

I've been having occlusion problems for the last couple of years, after tooth #3 (first molar upper right) was filed down too much after a correction of a filling. My bite has changed and it feels crooked.
I have a panoramic xray (attached). One dentist has told me I have a TMJ problem as a result (see difference in the placement of the mandibular condyle in the fossa on each side). I have shown this to a couple others and they said it's nothing. But I feel like this is what's causing the unevenness of my bite and tension in my jaw, and neck.
