TMJ/TMD Treatment
Do you have jaw pain, lockjaw, TMJ (temporomandibular joint) pain, or TMD (temporomandibular joint disorder)?
Smith Dental Team takes pride in helping treat this common dental problem. Treatments can range from adjusting sleep positioning to custom orthotic mouthpieces.
Our first line of defense is prevention and early treatment.
Custom made bite guards are a great way to protect the teeth and jaw joint. Once we detect an issue, it’s important our patients have options to prevent that problem from getting worse at the slowest rate possible. Bite guards are a great first line of defense to help our teeth and joints not feel any problems, even though there is an issue.
Have you had a long history of TMJ pain?
For our patients with significant pain and more complex cases, we use our TMJ treatment protocol. This treatment involves several different custom mouthpieces for TMJ appliances as well as coordination with other healthcare specialists. Our goal is to help you get the treatment you need.
Contact Smith Dental Team today if you are experiencing TMJ pain.
