Get Relief From Your TMJ Pain & Feel Like Yourself Again

A TMJ disorder can happen for many reasons. Arthritis, teeth-grinding habits, stress, or injury to your mouth can trigger it. Whatever the cause, your dentists can provide treatment that stops your pain. First, we’ll do an exam and take digital X-rays. We want to understand your complete oral health before recommending any solution. Based on our findings, we may suggest:

  • A Custom Oral Appliance – We can make a custom bite guard that prevents you from clenching or grinding your teeth. This gives your jaw a chance to heal. The mouthguard will fit you perfectly and last longer than any store-bought product.
  • Botox® Treatments – Another method of relief is through Botox. We’ll inject this FDA-approved treatment in strategic places on your jaw. It relieves your pain and encourages natural mouth movement.

Restorative dental care might also be part of your treatment. It’s especially important if grinding has damaged your teeth. We may also recommend orthodontic solutions, since misaligned teeth can cause a TMJ problem. Fortunately, we have many solutions to correct align your teeth. Your dentist will discuss which is suitable for you.
