TMJ refers to the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jawbone to your skull. TMJ disorders can be caused by various factors, including stress, teeth grinding (bruxism), misalignment of the teeth, or injury to the jaw.
Common symptoms include jaw pain, headaches, difficulty chewing, clicking or popping sounds in the jaw, and limited movement of the jaw. If you experience any of these symptoms, a consultation with our team can help determine if TMJ therapy is right for you.
TMJ therapy may include wearing a custom night guard to prevent teeth grinding, jaw exercises to improve mobility, stress management techniques, or even dietary changes to reduce strain on the jaw. Our team will assess your condition and recommend a personalized treatment plan.
TMJ therapy is designed to relieve pain, not cause it. Most treatments, such as night guards and exercises, are non-invasive and focus on reducing tension in the jaw. Any discomfort during treatment is typically mild and temporary.
