Yes, our TMJ treatment has been able to help many patients relieve their jaw pain and other TMJ symptoms. No matter which type of treatment you end up going with, the team here at Guilford Hills Dental Care will make sure it’s the right one for you. Besides you, no one wants your treatment to be successful more than we do.
We understand you want to end the pain caused by a TMJ disorder as soon as you can. The truth is that treatment can take weeks or months depending on the severity of your situation and what needs to be done. For most patients, an oral appliance is the perfect solution in and of itself. For others, orthodontics, dental restorations, or surgery may be needed to realign the teeth for the long term.
Signs of a TMJ disorder may include jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds when chewing, difficulty opening the mouth completely, facial pain, headaches, and ear pain or ringing. Some people may also experience neck and shoulder pain or toothaches unrelated to dental problems. Also, your jaw may feel locked or stuck. If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to visit our practice for help.
