TMJ Dentistry
If you have frequent headaches, pain or soreness around the jaw joints, neck, shoulder or back pain, clicking or grating sounds in the jaw joints, facial pain, limited movement or locking jaw, chances are that you suffer from temporomandibular joint disorder. Temporomandibular joint is the joint that attaches your lower jaw to the temporal bones in your skull. If your teeth don't come together in an optimal bite or if there is any disruption or damage to these joints, a TMJ disorder occurs.
The advancements in neuromuscular dentistry have provided dentists with the new techniques and computerized technology to treat the symptoms associated with TMJ by placing the jaw into its optimal position. TMJ treatments may be your only chance to get the relief you have been searching for.
