TMJ

Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD) refers to the acute or chronic inflammation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects the mandible of your jaw to the skull. This inflammation can result in many painful symptoms that often go diagnosed as other medical disorders

Earaches, headaches, and migraines

Jaw clicking or popping sound

Neck and Shoulder pain

Limited jaw movement

Aching pain in the face

Teeth grinding

Unfortunately, as many of these symptoms can be associated with various medical disorders spanning several healthcare fields, TMD is often misdiagnosed, which can be very debilitating to the patient's overall health.

In our office, we take a conservative approach to the treatment of TMD and work to give you an accurate diagnosis of your problem. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, we can assess whether TMD is the cause and chart a proper course of treatment to alleviate your painful symptoms.
