If you are influenced by temporomandibular joint disorder or TMD, you know how the pain and discomfort of TMD can lower your quality of life. At Create A Smile, we’ve helped countless patients find solutions and efficient treatments for TMJ in Ellettsville.
What is TMD?
The temporomandibular or jaw joint connects the lower jaw bone to the skull. TMD is often associated with jaw and facial pain, headaches, earaches, neck pain, and chewing difficulty. TMD is also associated with jaw clicking, locking, or clenching, and can cause tooth damage and bone loss.
Many TMJ patients first come to Create A Smile after trying to relieve their frequent headaches or neck pain. Since, 2001, we have discovered that many dental patients don’t realize they have TMJ disorder because it can be difficult to pinpoint specifically what is causing the pain. A TMJ specialist can properly diagnose your specific issues and recommend an effective course of action.
