Say Goodbye to Pain & Hello to Restful Nights
Your temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is what connects your jaw to your skull, allowing you to talk, eat, and laugh. But it could also be what causes you pain! Other signs of a TMJ disorder, or TMD, include:
- Discomfort when you open your mouth wide
- Mouth “locking” in an open or closed position
- Chronic headaches or migraines
Fortunately, Duffield Dentistry has many options for a solution. We’ll begin treatment for your TMJ disorder by evaluating your bite. We’ll do this by giving you a custom-made deprogrammer appliance for a couple of weeks to allow us to see which unique TMJ treatment is best for you:
- Palliative muscle relaxant treatment refers to a specific type of muscle relaxant to help with your TMJ discomfort.
- Dental crowns and tooth bonding can help by reshaping your teeth to take stress off the joint if it’s caused by a bad bite.
- Adjusting your bite through orthodontic methods is a way to address TMJ disorder symptoms caused by misalignment.
- A custom-made mouthguard can help reduce stress on your TMJ from clenching or grinding your teeth.
A mouthguard for a TMJ disorder works best when designed by an expert. A “boil and bite” mouthguard from your local drugstore will not have the important individualized adjustments we will make for you at Duffield Dentistry!
Make Headaches & Migraines Things of the Past With Our TMJ Treatment
Because the jaw joint muscles extend all the way to the temple, issues with this joint can cause severe headaches. Migraine headaches are some of the most severe that you can experience. And if your headaches or migraines are caused by a TMJ disorder, you can reduce or even eliminate them with our TMJ treatment.
TMJ treatment in Royal Oak will help you feel better soon! Call us today to schedule your consultation: 248-541-1388. You can also request an appointment online.
