Manage The Symptoms of TMJ With Our TMJ Treatments

Our mission at Westmoreland Family Dentistry in Oviedo is to provide optimal care and relief through TMJ treatment options. We believe dental health is fundamental to overall well-being and strive to ensure each patient's comfort and satisfaction.

What do TMJ treatments involve?

TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint disorder, a condition resulting from inflammation and misalignment of the jaw joints. Treatment for TMJ is tailored to each patient and can involve lifestyle modifications, mouthguards, medications, implants, or oral surgery. Our team of professionals has extensive experience in providing comprehensive treatment plans tailored to meet individual patients’ unique needs.

What are the benefits of TMJ treatment?

TMJ treatment can relieve pain, improve jaw function and mobility, and reduce stress. TMJ treatments such as mouthguards can help eliminate symptoms associated with teeth grinding or clenching that can lead to headaches, neck and shoulder pain, ear ringing, facial pain, and clicking or popping of the jaw joints. Treating TMJ can also improve oral health by reducing strain on the jaw and preventing damage to the teeth and gums.

Who is a good candidate for TMJ treatment?

Individuals who experience jaw pain or discomfort, difficulty chewing or talking, headaches, neck and shoulder tension, frequent ear ringing or popping, facial pain, or teeth grinding should consider TMJ treatment to relieve discomfort and improve their overall quality of life.
