TMJ Disorder

If you’re suffering from chronic headaches, have difficulty opening or closing your jaw, have facial pain, or have trouble chewing, TMJ treatment could help!

TMD (Temporomandibular Disorder) refers to pain and problems in your temporomandibular joint and is sometimes known as TMJ. Pain in the area is usually caused by overbearing stress in the joints around your jaw. This pain may be localized or radiate throughout the mouth.

Root causes of TMD include

• Misaligned bite
• Missing teeth
• Jaw clenching or teeth grinding
• Poor posture 
• Physical damage to your facial structure
• Weakness in your facial muscles 
• Conditions such as arthritis or whiplash
• Oral devices such as night guards or sports guards

Signs and symptoms of TMD include:

• Facial muscle pain 
• Joint pain in your jaw directly in front of your ear 
• Clicking sounds coming from your mouth 
• Chronic headaches including Migraines
• Discomfort and/or fatigue while chewing
• Neck Pain
• Back Pain
• Ringing in your ears (Tinnitus)
• Shocking or electrical type of pain
• Changes in  Vision
• Ear pain
• Multiple sensitive teeth
• Sinus Pain
