Manage Your TMJ Problem With Effective Treatment

A TMJ disorder results when those small joints on either side of your jaw become inflamed. It can happen due to injury, misalignment, or arthritis, just to name a few causes. This disorder can also lead to teeth grinding or clenching, jaw pain, and other painful symptoms. When you meet with Dr. Schwartz, he will discuss solutions to alleviate your discomfort and preserve your smile.

To start, we’ll take digital X-rays to determine the ideal treatment option. We’ll also make recommendations for restorative procedures, if you have cracked or chipped teeth because of teeth grinding. Depending on our findings, we may recommend:

  • Occlusal Bite Guards – This bite guard fits over your teeth and acts like a cushion, relieving the pressure of your grinding or clenching habits.
  • Bite Planes – This device will prevent you from pressing down with grinding or clenching. It rests on your front teeth and reduces the stress on your jaw.

In addition, your dentist may also recommend Invisalign as a long-term solution to your TMJ problems. Fixing alignment issues will often alleviate the issue. Most patients complete Invisalign treatment in about 12 to 18 months. You can look forward to a beautiful smile without the pain much sooner than with traditional orthodontic solutions.

Common Questions About TMJ Treatment / Teeth Grinding

Does TMJ treatment work?

Yes, our TMJ treatment has been able to help many patients over the years relieve their pain for good. No matter which type of treatment you end up going with, our team will make sure it’s the right one for you. Besides you, no one wants your treatment to be successful more than we do.

How long does TMJ treatment take?

A few months of Invisalign treatment may be all you need to align your teeth and help your jaw feel better. However, you may need ongoing treatment for a TMJ disorder. Fortunately, by wearing a simple appliance at night, you can prevent teeth grinding, a common cause of TMJ problems. You could enjoy your life with fewer headaches, earaches, jaw pain, and jaw stiffness.

Will insurance pay for my TMJ treatment?

Your insurance may pay for part of your TMJ treatment. We can help determine what your plan will and won’t cover and what your portion of the cost may be. Keep in mind that we offer financing options to help pay for your treatment. We work with CareCredit, which has attractive low-interest payment plans.
