TMJ Treatment

IF you suffer from chronic headaches, wearing down of tooth structures, sore jawbone from grinding teeth or jaw popping and clicking, you may suffer from TMJ disorder, also known as temporomandibular joint disorder.

TMJ occurs when your jaw joint doesn’t function, as it should. As a result, nerves can get pinched, muscles strained and you can experience headaches, among other side effects.

At Holt Dental Care, we make our patients comfortable thermoplastic appliances that form-fit their teeth. When worn at night, these appliances reduce the muscle activity and provide you with a restful night’s sleep. It also reduces stress on your teeth, jaw muscles and joint. If you suffer from any of these symptoms associated with TMJ, please call our office at (817) 488-2273 to schedule a free consultation.
