TMJ disorder can present with various symptoms, including jaw pain, headaches, earaches, or a clicking or popping sound when you open or close your mouth. You might also experience jaw stiffness or locking, making it difficult to open or close your mouth entirely. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to consult with a dental professional who can conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if TMJ is the cause.
During a TMJ therapy session at Espire Dental Riverfront, we begin with a comprehensive evaluation to understand your symptoms and how they impact your life. Depending on your needs, treatment may include fitting you with a custom dental appliance, guiding you through physical therapy exercises, discussing medication options, or administering Botox injections. Throughout the process, we focus on your comfort and ensure you’re fully informed about your treatment.
Insurance coverage for TMJ therapy varies by plan. Some insurance plans cover treatments that are deemed medically necessary, while others may have limitations. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to clarify your specific benefits. Our team at Espire Dental Riverfront is also here to help you verify coverage and discuss your care.
The timeline for experiencing relief from TMJ therapy can vary depending on the severity of your condition and the treatment used. Many patients notice improvements within a few weeks of starting therapy, particularly with treatments like appliance therapy or Botox injections. Complete relief may take longer, but we aim to achieve lasting results that enhance your quality of life.
Untreated TMJ disorder can lead to worsening symptoms over time, including chronic pain, persistent headaches, and increased jaw stiffness. In severe cases, it can cause significant damage to the jaw joint and surrounding tissues, potentially leading to more complicated dental issues like tooth wear, gum recession, and bite misalignment. Early intervention is crucial to prevent these long-term effects and to maintain optimal oral health.
TMJ therapy at Espire Dental Riverfront is designed to be comfortable. Most treatments, such as splint therapy or Botox injections, involve minimal discomfort and provide pain relief. Physical therapy exercises may cause mild soreness as your jaw muscles adjust, but this is typically temporary and subsides as your condition improves. Our team prioritizes your comfort and will work with you to ensure effective and pain-free dental care.
If TMJ disorder affects your life, it’s time to start smiling again and enjoying your life to its fullest. At Espire Dental Riverfront, we’re dedicated to helping you find relief with personalized, effective TMJ therapy. Our compassionate team is here to guide you every step of the way, answer your questions, and ensure you receive the highest level of care.
