TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint, which is essentially the joint that connects your jawbone to your skull. TMJ disorder, also known as TMD, is a condition that can cause pain and discomfort in the jaw and surrounding areas. Symptoms can include clicking or popping sounds when opening and closing your mouth, difficulty chewing, headaches, and even ear pain. There are a few different causes of TMJ disorder, including arthritis, genetics, and even stress. So, if you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s always a good idea to check in with your dental professional to see if TMJ might be the culprit.
We understand the impact that TMJ/TMD can have on your life. That’s why we offer bespoke, custom nightguards to help alleviate the pain and discomfort associated with this condition. Our nightguards are tailor-made to fit the unique contours of your mouth, ensuring maximum comfort and effectiveness. We take great care to design our dental nightguards with top-of-the-line materials that are both durable and comfortable to wear. Plus, our considerate and upscale approach means that you can rest assured that you are receiving the highest quality of care.
Our dental professionals will create a mouthguard or nightguard that is specific to your needs, with the perfect fit and level of thickness. The guard may be for your upper or lower teeth, depending on the severity of the condition. The mouthguard works by stabilizing your jaw, providing support to the muscles around the joint, and preventing the clenching or grinding of your teeth. This greatly reduces the pressure on the joint and diminishes the pain and discomfort that you experience.
We want to make sure you’re informed about many of the possible signs of this condition.
At Great White Dental, we want you to know that we prioritize your overall health and well-being. Our team of experienced dentists has years of experience in treating TMJ and TMD and is equipped with the latest technology and techniques to ensure that you receive the best care possible. From custom mouthguards to therapy, we offer a range of treatment options that are tailored to fit your specific needs. So if you’re experiencing any of the symptoms of TMJ or TMD, don’t hesitate to reach out to us and schedule an appointment. Let us help you get back to living your life pain-free.
