At EMM Dental Clinic, we take a comprehensive and personalized approach to diagnosing and treating jaw pain, bruxism, and TMJ disorders. Our goal is to identify the underlying causes and develop a customized treatment plan to alleviate your symptoms effectively. Here's what you can expect during your visit:

​

✔   Thorough Evaluation: Our experienced dental professionals will conduct a detailed examination, including a review of your medical history and a comprehensive assessment of your jaw joint, teeth, and muscles. We may utilize imaging techniques such as X-rays or CT scans to obtain a clear understanding of your condition.

✔   Accurate Diagnosis: Based on the evaluation, we will diagnose the specific cause of your jaw pain or TMJ disorder. This allows us to tailor a treatment plan that addresses your unique needs and provides the most effective solutions.

✔   Customized Treatment Options: Our team will recommend appropriate treatment options to relieve your symptoms and address the underlying causes. These may include:

• Bite Splints or Nightguards: Customized oral appliances that help alleviate the effects of bruxism and reduce the strain on your jaw joints.

• Occlusal Adjustments: The selective reshaping of tooth surfaces to improve the alignment of your bite and reduce pressure on the jaw joints.

• Physical Therapy: Special exercises and stretches to relieve muscle tension and improve jaw mobility.

• Medications: In some cases, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), muscle relaxants, or other medications may be prescribed to alleviate pain and reduce inflammation.

✔   Patient Education: We believe in empowering our patients with knowledge and understanding of their condition. We will provide you with guidance on proper oral habits, stress management techniques, and self-care strategies to promote long-term relief and prevent future issues.
