There are many treatments available for TMJ - including Botox injections. Coming in for a dental exam at our office will reveal which treatment makes the most sense for you.
Not getting treatment for your chronic TMJ can cause serious dental issues down the road.
The teeth grinding that is associated with TMJ can lead to more serious dental problems. Grinding wears down and weakens teeth. This can lead to tooth infections and potentially tooth loss. Tooth loss leads to more complex dental problems that require more invasive treatments - like dental implants or root canals.
