TMJ Treatment Options In Hastings-on-Hudson
TMJ dysfunction can result in chronic headaches, jaw clicking or popping, and facial pain, among other symptoms. Our experienced team of dentists and specialists can diagnose and treat TMJ dysfunction to help alleviate your discomfort.
Diagnosing TMJ:
If you are experiencing TMJ dysfunction symptoms, it’s important to schedule an appointment with our office. During your visit, your dentist or specialist will review your medical history, assess your jaw movements, and evaluate the location, intensity, and duration of your symptoms. Depending on your case, we may use further diagnostic tools like x-rays or CT scans to analyze the structure and movement of your jaw.
TREATMENT & RELIEF:
Once we have identified the cause of your TMJ dysfunction, we will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan to alleviate your symptoms. Treatment may include lifestyle modifications, such as stress reduction techniques, jaw exercises, and dietary changes. Depending on your condition, we may also use splints, orthodontics, or other methods to realign and support your jaw. In severe cases, surgery may be recommended to correct underlying structural abnormalities.
