Millions of people suffer from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder and this condition can cause a significant amount of pain. It may be caused by bruxism (inadvertently grinding your teeth), stress, or an improperly aligned bite. There are many treatments which can now be offered by a dentist or an orthodontist including:
- You could be prescribed an appliance which prevents you from grinding your teeth.
- It may be best to avoid specific foods.
- Surgery might be required in more advanced cases.
“If you suffer from TMJ discomfort, there are treatment options available, many of which are non-invasive.”
