TMJ

The temporomandibular joints, or the TMJ, are the joints and jaw muscles located on either side of the head that control jaw movement. The movement of the jaw incorporates muscles, ligaments, and the bone itself that work in harmony to allow you to chew and speak.

Transform Your Smile with our TMJ guard therapy

At Dental Implants & Prosthetics in Twin Falls, our preferred TMJ treatment is with mouthguard therapy. The TMJ mouthguard is a small device fashioned to fit over your upper teeth, protecting them from wear. The appliance can also reposition the lower jaw.

Overall, mouthguard TMJ treatment works to relax the TMJ muscles and provide headache relief. While simple, the TMJ mouthguard therapy is an effective solution to TMD and can eliminate all of its symptoms.

This TMJ treatment method is:

  • Small and portable.

  • Easy to clean.

  • Highly effective.

Other treatments may include TMJ massage, exercise, bite adjustments, or surgical intervention. Often, bite guard therapy is all that is required to restore your health and comfort.
