TMJ Disorders
If you've ever experienced jaw pain, clicking sounds, or difficulty while chewing, you might have Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders. These conditions affect the joints that connect your jaw to your skull, and we're here to help you understand and address them.
We understand the impact that temporomandibular joint (TMJ) issues can have on your daily life, from persistent jaw pain to headaches and difficulty in chewing. We are dedicated to providing personalised care to help treat you to the highest of standards.
Treating TMJ disorder involves a multifaceted approach aimed at addressing the root causes and providing relief from associated symptoms. At our practice, we employ a range of comprehensive treatments tailored to each patient's unique needs. This may include the use of custom-fitted dental splints or oral appliances to support proper jaw alignment and alleviate tension. Additionally, we may incorporate lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, and targeted exercises to enhance jaw muscle function.
Dental splints are customised, non-invasive devices designed to support the jaw. By carefully assessing your unique case, we will create a tailor-made splint to gently reposition the jaw, reducing tension and allowing the muscles to relax.
Our goal is to not only alleviate immediate discomfort but also to develop a personalised treatment plan that fosters long-term relief and improved overall oral health.
