What is TMJ?
Temporomandibular joint disorder (also known as TMJ) is a chronic degenerative
disease that may take years to develop. People who suffer from TMJ have a structural
imbalance in their jaw-to-skull relationship that is caused by poor bite. This
condition puts excessive pressure on the joints and surrounding tissues, twisting
the jaw into an unnatural position. Often, a popping of clicking sound can actually
be heard when a TMJ sufferer chews. Muscles in the face, back, neck, and shoulders
may also be affected, leading to symptoms that range from headaches to numbness
in the hands.
Symptoms:
You may be a candidate for neuromuscular dentistry if you experience any of
the following symptoms on a regular basis:
• Headaches or Migraines
• Pain or soreness around the jaw joints
• Facial pain
• Neck, shoulder or back pain
• Numbness in your fingers and arms
• Congestion or stuffiness of the ears
• Worn, chipped or cracked teeth
• Cracked, chipped or broken dental restorations
• Unexplained loose teeth
Neuromuscular
Treatment:
TMJ can now be easily and painlessly detected using state-of-the-art electrical
muscle stimulator or TENSing unit and a sophisticated piece of equipment called
the Myotronics K7. Your facial muscles will be exercised, built-up toxins will
be released and your jaw’s optimum relaxed position will be determined.
To correct your bite, Dr. Nelly Silva will most likely use dental restorations
to precisely raise or lower areas of your jaw into a more neutral position.
In most cases, they can reposition your bite and complete treatment in a few
short weeks.
Results:
Following treatment to correct TMJ, most patients experience significant lessening
to a complete cessation of symptoms. Imagine living headache free after enduring
the pain for years! And as an added bonus, most patients of Dr. Silva also report
positive aesthetic results – some are even asked if they’ve had
a facelift. Please call today to schedule a consultation or visit us online
