Experience Relief & Healing with Our Personalized TMJ Treatment
Your TMJs are located on either side of your jaw and allow you to open and close your mouth. When these joints aren’t functioning optimally, you may experience pain while talking, eating, laughing, or yawning. While researchers haven’t identified all the causes of TMJ pain (also known as TMD), they have established a connection between teeth grinding and this disorder. Grinding can be both a cause and a symptom of TMJ issues.
Dr. Matt Rohlf offers custom oral appliances crafted using state-of-the-art technology, such as digital X-rays and intraoral scanners. This ensures a precise and comfortable fit. With our TMJ treatment, you can:
- Experience gentle repositioning of your lower jaw to relieve tension on your TMJs
- Allow your TMJs to begin the healing process, leading to a pain-free future
- Enjoy a comfortable night’s sleep and wake up without jaw soreness
- Prevent teeth grinding while you sleep, protecting your tooth enamel
In addition to a custom bite guard, you may also benefit from treatment with clear aligners. TMJ disorders are often triggered by bite misalignment – a problem that aligners can correct. Dr. Rohlf will discuss whether this is ideal for you as a long-term solution. He will also review whether you need restorative dental care to treat any existing damage from your teeth grinding habits.
