At SmileOn Family Dentistry we provide non-surgical treatments in TMJ & Sleep Therapy for adults and children. Craniofacial Pain, Sleep Apnea, and Snoring can all be successfully treated with correct evaluation and diagnosis.
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jaw to your skull, and can sometimes become a source of pain or discomfort known as TMJ disorder. This common syndrome is suffered by millions, and can be caused by injury to the teeth or jaw, misalignment of the teeth or jaw, teeth grinding, poor posture, stress, arthritis, and gum chewing. When the balance of these jawbones, cartilage, and muscles is lost, this can result in headaches, earaches, difficulty in opening and closing the jaw, a clicking or popping in the joint, a dull aching pain around the ear that spreads into the face. Our dentists will provide a range of techniques to reduce pain, prevent tooth damage, and will develop a treatment plan to correct your bite alignment if necessary.
One of the most common and effective ways to stop the damage caused by teeth grinding and clenching is the use of a nightguard. Following an assessment by our dentists, our clinic will have a custom night guard made for you and can prevent the damage and pain caused by TMJ and teeth grinding. Jaw pain is preventable and treatable in many cases; you no longer have to suffer in silence. These are some of the most frequent TMJ symptoms that you may encounter.
If you experience persistent jaw discomfort or soreness, or if you can’t fully open or close your jaw, get medical help. SmileOn’s dentists can discuss with you the causes and solutions for your condition.
Our goal at SmileOn dental clinic is to give pain relief and appropriate structure in order for our patients to be able to breathe, sleep, heal, and live a healthy life. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding our practice.
