Non-Surgical TMJ Therapy
Americans spend billions of dollars each year trying to relieve the headaches and neck pain caused by TMJ dysfunction. You deserve to enjoy a comfortable smile and better quality of life. Dr. Tate can address the issues and alleviate your symptoms with non-surgical TMJ therapy. TMJ dysfunction occurs because your jaw joints stop functioning properly, which strains the associated nerves and muscles.
Do You Have TMJ Dysfunction?
Common signs include:
- Congestion or Pressure in the Ears
- Dizziness
- Headaches and/or Migraines
- Limited Range of Motion
- Grinding and Clenching
- Numbness in the Fingers and Arms
During your initial visit, Dr. Tate will review your medical history and perform a thorough examination. Once he discovers the root of the problem, he can recommend the appropriate non-surgical TMJ therapy. Often, non-surgical TMJ therapy involves an oral appliance to keep your bite in the correct position, exercises to strengthen your chewing system, restorations to correct uneven wear, and anti-inflammatories to reduce soreness.
