Revolutionary Lifetime Solution to TMJ

If you've ever had trouble with your TMJ joints, you know firsthand how painful and troubling it can be. Normally, the tiny triangular-shaped temporomandibular (TMJ) joints in front of each of your ears move with a smooth, gliding motion, controlled by your temporal and jaw muscles working in balanced partnership. However, genetic structural disharmonies, physical stress, and even emotional troubles can all work to alter the system's smooth biomechanics, creating mild to severe symptoms: from jaw clicking and minor discomfort to sharp pain in your temples, ears, jaw and teeth; TMJ trouble can also “lock” your jaw open or shut, or dislocate the jaw altogether. What's worse, you may develop an unconscious or conscious habit of clenching and grinding your teeth, causing further mechanical damage and imbalances. And while dentistry has developed a number of treatments over the years, from protective acrylic appliances to bio-feedback, there's not been a long-term solution.

TMJ Treatments

Until recently. Now, there's a revolutionary series of treatments available to actually diagnose and restore the source of the TMJ trouble: Bioesthetic Dentistry. Following diagnosis, meticulous individualized planning is completed, then careful restorative dentistry is performed as needed to create a balanced bite. Restorations may include veneers, crowns, fixed or removable dental work, implants, and any other tooth or jaw adjustment processes needed to bring the system into perfect biomechanical balance. As complex as that may seem, the result is permanently rewarding: a beautiful and pain-free smile, a stabilized TMJ system, comfortable muscles, efficient chewing, and teeth that last a lifetime.
