Living with jaw pain can be frustrating and exhausting. For many Miami Beach residents, TMJ disorders make daily activities—like eating, speaking, or even smiling—uncomfortable. At Real Smile Dentistry, we understand the impact TMJ issues can have on your quality of life, and we’re here to help you find relief.
What Is TMJ and How Does It Affect You?
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jawbone to your skull, allowing you to open and close your mouth with ease. When this joint becomes irritated or misaligned, it can cause a range of symptoms, including:
- Jaw pain or tenderness
- Clicking or popping sounds when opening your mouth
- Difficulty chewing or biting
- Facial pain or headaches
- Locking of the jaw joint
TMJ disorders can stem from several causes, including stress, teeth grinding (bruxism), injury, or arthritis. If you’ve been experiencing persistent discomfort, Real Smile Dentistry can evaluate your symptoms and create a customized treatment plan
How Real Smile Dentistry Can Help
At Real Smile Dentistry in Miami Beach, we specialize in diagnosing and treating TMJ disorders with a compassionate, patient-focused approach. When you visit our office, we’ll take the time to understand your symptoms and identify the root cause of your discomfort. Our TMJ treatment options may include:
- Nightguards or Splints: Custom-fitted oral appliances can reduce pressure on the TMJ, particularly for those who grind their teeth at night.
- Lifestyle Modifications: Guidance on stress management, diet changes, and jaw exercises to alleviate tension and inflammation.
- Advanced Treatments: In more severe cases, we may recommend Botox therapy to relax overactive jaw muscles or coordinate care with a specialist for long-term relief.
We believe in working collaboratively with our patients to provide relief and improve their quality of life.
