Unconnected Symptoms?
Linked through TMJ
If you're suffering from ailments like persistent headaches, ringing in the ears, or popping of the jaw, or if you snore, grind your teeth or have limited jaw movement you may suffer from TMJ. Good news! It's completely treatable - by a dentist!
TMJ (temporomandibular joint syndrome) often occurs when the teeth do not close together properly, including underbites and overbites... The misalignment of the teeth causes the jaw muscles to strain and force the jaw into better alignment... TMD is a type of dysfunction due to inappropriate use of your jaw muscles. The constant strain can lead to:
- headaches or migraines
- facial pain
- pain in your neck, shoulders, or jaw
- tinnitus (ringing in your ears)
- unexplained tooth loss, or sensitive or sore teeth
- limited movement or a locking jaw
- worn or cracked teeth
- clicking or popping in the jaw joints
At Amazing Smiles, Dr. Jeff uses sophisticated computer equipment to calibrate a "baseline" for your jaw position... This is the natural position where your jaw rests when it is completely relaxed. By calibrating the natural position of your jaw joint and teeth.
Please visit us for an evaluation of your bite and jaw joint relationship. It will let us know if you might be a candidate for neuromuscular dentistry - a possible solution to your discomfort.
