✦ TMD Symptoms & Risks ✦
TMJ disorder (TMD) occurs when the temporomandibular joint, which connects the lower jaw to the skull, does not function correctly. While jaw pain is the most telling, this condition has a wide range of symptoms, including headaches and migraines, dizziness, numbness in the arms and fingers, pain in the base of the skull, neck, or shoulders, anxiety, restlessness, discomfort while chewing, and stuffiness or ringing in the ears.
If left untreated, the condition tends to worsen over time and can lead to anxiety, digestive disorders, or the need for teeth extractions.
✦ Millennium Smiles Can Help! ✦
Millennium Smiles offers patients the opportunity to have their oral muscles evaluated with advanced biometrics to determine the cause of their symptoms. Once the dentist identifies the root cause, they will create a personalized treatment plan, which can include noninvasive corrective appliances, expansion techniques, orthodontic treatment, and myofunctional therapy.
Millennium Smiles has developed unique treatment protocols for TMD which have a proven 95% success rate. In most cases, the practice starts patients with a 12-16 week TMJ therapy plan designed to retrain the oral muscles and bring the jaw back into healthy alignment.
If patients require further treatment to find full relief, Millennium Smiles can prescribe corrective appliances, orthodontic treatments, and more. The dentists at Millennium Smiles strive to work with you through this process and educate you on your oral health the whole way through.
