Dental and TMJ Pain Care
Toothache
A toothache may be caused by tooth decay and abscessed tooth. It can also be infected gums or a damaged filling.
Headaches & Migraines
When your bite is out of alignment, the muscles surrounding your face, head and neck are constantly strained.
Jaw Pain, Jaw Clicking, Jaw Locking
When your jaw is misaligned and not properly supported by your occlusion, it can be limited in its range of motion.
Ear Pain, Facial Pain, Eye Pain
Do you have a pain on the top of your head? Or do you have a sore jaw line or pain from your ear?
Neck Pain, Shoulder Pain, Back Pain
Muscles work as a team. Contracted jaw muscles will cause compensation from your neck, shoulder and back.
TMJ Treatment
TMJ treatment may include a number of different options to reduce or eliminate TMJ disorder pain.
“My mission is not only to take care of your oral health but also to protect your overall health. I understand that the bones, joints, muscles, and nerves in the face and neck have a complex relationship. They work to correct the bite, relieving strain on the jaw and the surrounding muscles. Once the bite has been aligned, pain from TMJ Disorder issues may be eliminated.
The treatment may take some time and may include a number of different options to reduce or eliminate TMJD pain.”
