At Mountain West Family Dental, we are proud to offer temporomandibular joint dysfunction, otherwise known as TMJ, dental treatments to provide relief for our patients. TMJ is caused by an inflammation in the temporomandibular joint, which acts as a sliding hinge that connects your jawbone to your skull.
TMJ care is an important part of our general dentistry services, helping patients manage jaw pain and improve daily comfort.
What are the symptoms of TMJ?
TMJ causes pain and discomfort along the jawbone and can make it painful to even move your jaw. While jaw pain and discomfort don’t always equate to TMJ, if you are also experiencing headaches, trouble chewing, or pain in the face, jaw, and ear, you’re more than likely experiencing TMJ.
