Patients experiencing TMD and TMJ deserve top-quality care. What can you do to banish pain in your jawline, teeth grinding, and difficulty eating once and for all? Let an experienced TMJ specialist in our dental office examine your jaw, discuss your symptoms, and create a custom treatment plan.
What is TMD/TMJ?
TMD and TMJ refer to the same condition. The temporomandibular joint connects the jawbone to the skull at either side of the face, in front of each ear. Patients with tightness in the jaw, pain on the sides of their face, migraine headaches, difficulty chewing or speaking, and other symptoms may be experiencing temporomandibular joint disorder, commonly called TMD or TMJ. There are many symptoms of TMJ, ranging from discomfort to debilitating pain. Who better to examine your issue and offer treatment than a TMD specialist dentist who has years of schooling and experience in this particular area of the body? Our compassionate dentists want to make sure every patient has a healthy and happy smile. If you are suffering from TMJ, we want to help find the right solution to alleviate pain, protect teeth from grinding, and ensure you can eat and speak normally.
