TMJ Treatments

Do you find yourself with frequent headaches, aching or popping jaws, shoulder pain, and neck pain? This can be caused by dental occlusion (your bite). TMJ can cause your jaw to not relax in a natural position. This causes tension in the muscles in the jaw, and can lead to a variety of pain that you may have already grown accustomed to living with. Other symptoms of TMJ include: jaw pain, headaches, clicking or popping noise from the joint, ear pain, face pain, inability to open the mouth wide, and many more.

Treatments for TMJ can consist of using a custom-made dental orthotic. It is a non-invasive removable appliance in which the jaw can be returned to the position that nature intended. If you have been living with the pain and discomfort described above, we invite you to discover the benefits that this procedure may bring to your quality of life. Call Central Jersey Dental with any questions you may have about TMJ and treamtent.
