We use advanced techniques to diagnose and treat TMJ disorders, helping you regain control over your oral health and well-being.

Why Choose TMJ & Jaw Pain Treatment?

TMJ disorders can be caused by various factors, including teeth grinding, jaw misalignment, injury, stress, or arthritis. These conditions can lead to pain, discomfort, and difficulty moving the jaw. Our goal is to provide effective treatment options that address the root cause of your jaw pain, improve functionality, and help reduce discomfort. Whether you are dealing with chronic TMJ pain or acute jaw discomfort, our team is here to help you find relief.

Benefits of TMJ & Jaw Pain Treatment:

• Pain Relief: Our treatment plan is tailored to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and restore the normal function of the TMJ.
  
  
• Improved Jaw Function: We help you regain the ability to move your jaw freely, improving your ability to eat, speak, and perform daily tasks without discomfort.
  
  
• Reduced Headaches: TMJ disorders often cause frequent headaches and migraines. By addressing the root cause, we help reduce the frequency and severity of these headaches.
  
  
• Better Sleep: TMJ pain and teeth grinding can disrupt sleep, but effective treatment can lead to improved sleep quality and overall rest.
  
  
• Customized Treatment Plan: Every patient’s condition is unique. We create a personalized treatment plan to ensure that your specific needs are met, providing the most effective relief possible.
  
  

The TMJ & Jaw Pain Treatment Process:

1. Initial Consultation: During your consultation, we conduct a comprehensive examination, including a review of your medical history, symptoms, and a physical examination of your jaw and surrounding muscles.
   
   
2. Diagnosis: We may use X-rays, MRI scans, or other diagnostic tools to assess the temporomandibular joint and identify the exact cause of your jaw pain.
   
   
3. Treatment Options:
   
   
   • Mouthguards and Splints: If teeth grinding or jaw clenching is contributing to your pain, we provide custom-fitted mouthguards or splints to protect your teeth and alleviate pressure on the TMJ.
     
     
   • Physical Therapy: Specific exercises and stretches can help relieve muscle tension and improve jaw function. We may refer you to a physical therapist who specializes in TMJ disorders.
     
     
   • Medication: For temporary relief, we may recommend anti-inflammatory medications, muscle relaxants, or pain relievers to reduce discomfort and inflammation.
     
     
   • Jaw Exercises: We guide you through gentle jaw exercises to strengthen and relax the muscles around the TMJ, improving mobility and reducing pain.
     
     
   • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Stress is often a contributing factor to TMJ pain. CBT can help manage stress and teach relaxation techniques to prevent jaw clenching and grinding.
     
     
   • Injections: In some cases, Botox or corticosteroid injections may be recommended to reduce muscle spasms and inflammation in the jaw area.
     
     
   • Surgical Options: For more severe cases, surgical intervention may be required. We will discuss all available options with you and help you make an informed decision.
     
     
4. Follow-Up Care: We monitor your progress through follow-up appointments, adjusting the treatment plan as needed to ensure long-term relief and recovery.
   
   
5. Lifestyle Modifications: We provide advice on lifestyle changes that can help prevent future jaw pain, such as improving posture, avoiding hard or chewy foods, and managing stress levels.
