If you are suffering from TMJ symptoms such as pain, swelling, limited jaw mobility, or migraine headaches, the sooner you make an appointment with Tarrytown neuromuscular dentist Dr. Wanda Mejia, the faster you can begin to experience relief. Because TMJ is caused by jaw misalignment, no amount of medication will be able to produce long-term relief. The only way to effectively treat this common disorder is with the help of an experienced neuromuscular dentist.
TMJ Treatments
TMJ and migraine treatments offered by our Mohegan Lake neuromuscular dentist include:
- Muscle relaxation with a TENS unit
- Oral splints or mouthguards to retrain jaw muscles
- Correction of malocclusion or bite issues
- Restorative services such as dental crowns or implants
Each case of TMJ is different. To properly treat your particular issues Dr. Mejia will need to first determine your needs with a thorough examination. When necessary, treatment can be bolstered by stress reduction, exercises, and relaxation techniques. These things will all be discussed with you during your Mohegan Lake migraine and TMJ treatment consultation to help you determine which solutions can best meet your needs.
If you are suffering from migraine headaches or other symptoms of TMJ, please contact Advanced Dentistry of Mohegan Lake to schedule an examination with our experienced neuromuscular dentist.
