TMJ/TMJD Treatment
Do you have a sore jaw?
You could be suffering from Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJD), a syndrome that occurs when the muscles around the jaw become inflamed, which sometimes happens as a result of clenching or grinding your teeth while you sleep, arthritis or injury.
What is the treatment for a sore jaw?
A night guard works to combat this issue by preventing your teeth from clenching and grinding while you sleep. At Glenora Family Dental in Edmonton, TMJ treatment starts with a consultation with Dr. VandenBrink where they examine your jaw, discusses your symptoms, and may take x-rays to determine the appropriate course of treatment. This could lead to various treatment options that will help alleviate your symptoms, or in more extreme cases, a referral to a TMJD Specialist.
If you are experiencing dental or jaw pain, seek TMJD treatment from Glenora Family Dental as soon as possible – give us a call to learn more, (780) 452-5700!
