TMJ Treatment

Picture
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a source of pain and discomfort for many individuals. This remarkably complex joint is the point where the skull and the jawbone meet. Some people complain of clicking, popping and locking at the joint. This can sometimes result in headaches, neck pain, earaches, and other forms of facial pain associated with TMJ disorders. We often take conservative approaches to successfully alleviate the TMJ-associated problems you may have.
TMJ disorder is incredibly common. In the United States alone, over 10 million people suffer from a TMJ disorder. Causes of TMJ disorder can include wearing and tearing of the cartilage surrounding the TMJ, a dislocation of the joint, habitual clenching or grinding of the teeth, arthritis or a misaligned bite. At our practice, TMJ treatment begins with a careful analysis of the causes of your pain; only then can TMJ be successfully treated. Thankfully, our dental professionals are well equipped to diagnose and treat TMJ disorder and relieve the condition's painful symptoms.
