TMJ Treatment - Chelmsford, MA
Surgery-Free Jaw Pain Relief
Are TMJ Problems Causing You Daily Discomfort?
If you’re having ongoing jaw pain, headaches, or difficulty opening your mouth, you may have issues with your jaw joints. These could be TMJ disorders, an assortment of problems originating in your temporomandibular joints (TMJ). Your jaw joints are located on each side of the face and are the hinges that enable you to open and close your mouth. With most TMJ problems, the muscles and soft tissues supporting those joints become overstressed or damaged, leading to jaw pain, headaches, and a multitude of other unpleasant symptoms. Renowned for TMJ treatment in Chelmsford, MA, the multi-specialty Chelmsford Dental Group team can pinpoint the factors behind your TMJ symptoms and offer the relief you need for an improved quality of life through effective non-surgical treatments.
Relief Via Occlusal Adjustments and Palliative Care
At Chelmsford Dental Group, we prefer taking the most conservative approach to treatment while also optimizing your oral health and end results. With some TMJ disorders, uneven biting surfaces on the molars lead to TMJ pain and problems. We can easily remedy these issues with occlusal adjustment, smoothing down uneven chewing surfaces until your upper and lower arches fit fully and comfortably together. We may also integrate palliative care to alleviate your painful symptoms. This may include the use of anti-inflammatory medications, hot and cold compresses, and jaw exercises and stretches. No matter what your TMJ issues are, we’re dedicated to identifying and treating your condition to give you the improved quality of life and comfort you deserve.
