TMJ & TMD Treatment

The temporomandibular joints (TMJ), located at the jawline, facilitate mouth opening and closing, aiding in chewing, speaking, and swallowing. These joints, situated on either side of the head, function together to support these actions. Various factors such as arthritis, injury, tooth decay, misaligned jaw, stress, teeth grinding, or accidents can contribute to TMJ issues, causing discomfort and pain. Seeking assistance from the Luxe Dentistry team can offer relief from TMJ symptoms through general dentistry, restoring jaw functionality and alleviating pain.

Signs of TMJ & TMD

Are you worried about a possible jaw disorder? Indications of TMJ and TMD comprise:

• Pain or excessive sensitivity in the facial, jaw, neck, and shoulder regions, possibly extending to the ears during chewing, speaking, or wide mouth opening.
• Difficulty and discomfort when attempting to fully open the mouth.
• Jaw complications like a sensation of being stuck or locked in an open or closed position.
• Clicking, popping, or grinding sounds in the jaw joint during mouth movements.
• Facial fatigue or soreness.
• Perceived insecurity or misalignment of the upper and lower bite.
• Swelling on one or both sides of the face.
