How TMJ Therapy Manages Jaw Pain

When you regularly experience problems with jaw pain, it can point to trouble with your oral health. That means it is something that treatment from your dentist can resolve! TMJ therapy takes on issues with poor jaw movement and alignment. By making the necessary corrections to address imbalances, Sunny Smiles can ease the tension placed on your joints and muscles to alleviate discomfort. Through appliance therapy, we can help you make adjustments that create problems with discomfort and return to a better bite movement. What we can also do is take on any problems with your oral health that are making it harder for you to avoid an uneven or awkward bite movement.

How Often Is Jaw Pain A Problem For You?

Does jaw pain affect you on a daily basis? Are you regularly suffering from discomfort when you bite and chew? TMJ disorder can be the cause of this and other forms of discomfort. You should also pay attention to problems with more frequent headaches, teeth grinding, and even discomfort that affects your neck and shoulders. Recognizing that something is wrong and seeking help can lead to a welcome form of care that improves your bite and jaw alignment. When appropriate, our support can extend to addressing problems with your oral health that have made it difficult for you to put pressure on a tooth.

Dealing With TMJ Disorder

TMJ therapy with a custom oral appliance can help you ease the tension that your joints and muscles are under. With a corrective appliance, we can adjust how your jaw rests, encouraging you to rely on a more comfortable and natural position. To make sure that your appliance provides the right results, we can take care to measure your teeth and oral structures and provide a personalized guard.

Jaw Movement And Your Oral Health

There are different reasons why people start to have problems with their jaw movement. One concern is that you are not comfortable applying pressure on certain teeth because they are not in good condition. If this is the case, restorative dentistry can help. With custom dental crowns, we can restore teeth in poor condition and make sure you feel more confident in how you apply pressure.
