Rely on Dental Arts Group for TMD Treatments

The temporomandibular joints (TMJ), where the jawbone meets the skull, can be painful, and you may even experience restricted joint movement. This pain and restriction is known as Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD). If you have TMJ discomfort or lack freedom of movement, call us today.

Recognizing the Need for Professional TMD Treatments

If you are unsure about recognizing the need for TMB treatment, here are some things to look for:

• Pain in the jaw area
• Clicking or popping when the joint moves
• Pain, ringing, or stuffiness in the ears
• Swelling on the sides of the face
• Muscle spasms in the jaw
• Frequent headaches or neck aches
• A change in the alignment of your top and bottom teeth

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, don't hesitate to reach out to us at Dental Arts Group.

Steps You Can Take at Home

There are a number of things you can keep in mind to prevent TMD or prevent it from becoming more severe.

• Relax your face - the rule is "lips together, teeth apart"
• Avoid chewing gum constantly
• Don't cradle a phone between your head and shoulder
• Chew food on both sides of the mouth
• Avoid grinding your teeth
• Do not rest your chin on your hand
• Practice good posture - head up, back straight, shoulders square

Contact Dental Arts Group for additional information about TMD and its treatment.
