Schedule an appointment with our TMJ dentist to deal with constant jaw pain and live a life free of pain.

TMJ Dentist

TMJ stands for the Temporomandibular Joint and is more than just a mouthful. This joint is responsible for helping the jaw to move, open, and close without issue. If you experience any challenges with your jaw, then it is crucial to see us as soon as possible. We can help diagnose and treat symptoms of TMJ disorder.

If left untreated, TMJ disorder will only cause more pain and strain on the jaw. Over time, the pain can spread to other areas of the face, along with causing headaches. As a TMJ dentist, we can identify the source of these symptoms.

Since the symptoms can mimic other conditions, patients may misdiagnose their condition or seek store-bought products that only provide temporary relief. TMJ disorders can make it difficult to eating, speaking, and even sleeping. The sooner you seek treatment, the sooner you can begin achieving lasting relief.

Our team will help to recommend a treatment plan that can help you receive relief and allow you to continue using your jaw without issue. We can also recommend jaw exercises you can complete at home each day to promote healing. These exercises only take a few seconds or minutes each day.

While surgery is possible, it is crucial to attempt all non-surgical options first. In many cases, non-surgical oral appliances, similar to a mouthguard, can help relieve symptoms. During an appointment, we will go over the possible treatment options and customize it to your needs. Call us today and schedule an appointment to begin the treatment process.
