This is the joint responsible for jaw movement\u2014talking, crunching, grinding, clenching, etc. It\u2019s a complex system of bones, muscles, and tendons. When something interrupts the function of this system, it\u2019s referred to as TMD, or temporomandibular disorder.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If your jaw is misaligned, your muscles are strained trying to put (or keep) your jaw in its proper place<\/strong>. Soon it starts impacting all the surrounding muscles, including your neck, your head, and even your spine.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Some TMD Symptoms Include:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Popping or clicking jaw<\/li>\n<li>Sore teeth<\/li>\n<li>Facial pain<\/li>\n<li>Aching neck muscles<\/li>\n<li><strong>And of course, Migraines<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Treating TMD<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>TMD research is still a developing science and treatments can range from fitting a mouthpiece to actually adjusting one\u2019s bite. If you\u2019re suffering from pain in your jaw, your teeth, your face or head, or migraines (with or without other symptoms) come in and <strong>ask us<\/strong> about it. <strong>We can check your bite and see if dental issues may be to blame.<\/strong><strong>Our team<\/strong> is not only concerned with your oral health, but we\u2019re also concerned about your overall health and comfort. If you have questions about TMJ or TMD, leave us a <strong>comment below<\/strong>, send us a direct message on <strong>Facebook<\/strong>, or <strong>contact us<\/strong> for an appointment.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>As always, thanks for the trust you place in our practice!<\/strong><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>FOR MIGRAINE SUFFERERS, IT MAY SEEM AS THOUGH <\/strong>there are only two options\u2014either suffer in silence&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":761,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 -
