Dentistry isn’t just about teeth. Problems with your jaw and bite can negatively impact your daily life. Do you suffer from a TMJ disorder? We can help!
Botox is an effective, non-surgical treatment option for Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders, providing relief for patients experiencing jaw pain, tension, and headaches. By targeting and relaxing the overactive muscles responsible for clenching and grinding, Botox helps to reduce discomfort and restore proper jaw function. Many patients find that Botox alleviates symptoms like jaw stiffness, facial pain, and difficulty chewing. Treatment is quick, minimally invasive, and can offer long-lasting relief with regular maintenance appointments. If you're struggling with TMJ discomfort, Botox may be the solution to help you regain comfort and improve your quality of life. Common symptoms of TMJ include:
What should I do?
If you experience some popping and no pain, these are early signs of TMJ changes and you may or may not not need intervention, but we are happy to answer any questions you might have. If you are experiencing those symptoms with pain, an evaluation of the entire joint as well as the surrounding musculature and the dentition is indicated. There is no one solution that is right for all cases. We will work together with you to create a custom-designed treatment plan to improve your health. Our skilled team has worked hard to know the ins and outs of TMJ disorders to better serve you.
If TMJ is left untreated and reaches extremes, surgery may be required to repair the badly damaged joint. Talk to us about your concerns! We will do everything in our power to find a solution.
