TMJ DISORDER TREATMENT

TMJ DISORDER TREATMENT

TMJ disorder or temporomandibular joint disorder refers to a variety of conditions that affect the jaw muscles and nerves around the facial area. Symptoms (on one or both sides of the face) to look out for range from a ear pain without infection, jaw pain or soreness, jaw pain when you chew or bite, a clicking sound when you open or close your jaw and sensitive teeth.

At Rex Medical Centre, we prefer to treat TMJ disorders as non-invasively as possible with pain killers or muscle relaxants. In other scenarios we may provide you with a nighttime mouth guard. Most of our patients have experienced relief with minor corrections in their lifestyle and habits. But should you feel your issues are more severe, please do call us to book a consultation.
