SERVICES - TMJ TREATMENT

Tempromandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMD) is also referred to as Myofascial Pain Dysfunction, (MPD) or Tempromandibular Joint syndrome (TMJ). This is a chronic illness that affects 75 million people. As a chronic degenerative disease, it often takes years to develop. We have new techniques and computerized technology that can comfortably give you the relief you have been searching for. People who suffer from TMJ have a structural imbalance in their jaw-to-skull relationship. This is caused by a bad bite (malocclusion), which causes the following:

  • Alteration of the position of the TMJ placing excessive pressure on the joint and tissues around them.

  • Twisting the jaw into a strained position. This affects the muscles in the face, back, neck and shoulders


SOLUTION:
To correct this, the jaw is brought back into a muscularly balanced position, through sophisticated computer analysis. In most cases, we can do this without surgery or braces. We invite you to explore how the neuromuscular approach to your dentistry can enhance and improve your life.
