TMJ Disorders - What Are They?

TMJ stands for temporomandibular joints – the vital link between your lower jawbone and skull that enables you to open or close your mouth. These crucial joints are responsible for millions of Americans experiencing discomfort in their face, neck, or jaw due to TMJ-related issues annually. Fortunately, Sleep Apnea & Tongue Tie San Antonio offers effective treatments aimed at alleviating this pain while enhancing the overall quality of life.

What are the symptoms of TMJ disorder?

TMJ disorders can present with various signs, which can differ from individual to person. A few of the most typical symptoms consist of the following:

  1. Pain or inflammation in the jaw joint area
  2. Clicking, popping, or grating noises when opening or closing the mouth
  3. Trouble or pain while chewing or speaking
  4. Aching discomfort in or around the ear
  5. Headaches or migraines
  6. Neck and shoulder pain
  7. Locking the jaw joint makes it tough to open or close the mouth.

It is essential to note that not all people with TMJ conditions will experience all of these signs. Some might only share a couple, while others may have additional symptoms not stated here. If you are experiencing any of these signs, seeking advice from a healthcare expert for an accurate diagnosis and an appropriate treatment plan is recommended.

How common is a temporomandibular joint disorder?

Temporomandibular joint disorders, also known as TMJ conditions, are more common than you may believe. In truth, it is estimated that around 10 million individuals in the United States alone experience TMJ disorders. This implies that roughly 3% of the population is affected by this condition. Nevertheless, it is very important to keep in mind that TMJ disorders can vary in seriousness, with some people experiencing mild signs while others have more incapacitating discomfort.

How to Treat TMJ Disorders:

TMJ/TMD is a complex condition with various underlying causes that require personalized treatment plans. At Sleep Apnea & Tongue Tie San Antonio, Dr. Sidra will conduct an in-depth consultation and examination of your mouth and jaw to identify the root cause of your symptoms.

This information will enable her to create a customized plan tailored to you. With this approach, we aim to provide effective relief from TMJ/TMD-related discomforts.

Minor TMJ/TMD cases can often be treated with rest and anti-inflammatory medications, along with lifestyle changes. For instance, if grinding your teeth at night (bruxism) has caused this condition, we may suggest a custom-made mouth guard protect both teeth while promoting healing in the temporomandibular joint by positioning it correctly during sleep time.

This device encourages optimal alignment between the upper and lower jaws, enhancing overall well-being over time through gradual recovery from discomfort or pain associated with minor TMJ/TMD conditions.
