TMJ Treatment in Willow Park, TX
Get Relief from TMJ Disorder with Our Award-Winning Specialist
TMJ is short for temporomandibular joint, also commonly referred to as TMD. The problems associated with TMJ arise in the joint that connects your jaw to the rest of your skull. Our 5-star-rated dentist, Dr. Crain, and his team have helped many of our patients with TMJ treatment in Willow Park, TX.
One of our most effective options is custom oral appliances, or nightguards, which we make right here in-house. These can effectively relieve the pressure inside the jaw joint, giving it a chance to heal naturally. Nightguards also prevent bruxism or teeth grinding.
We also offer occlusal adjustments (aka bite adjustments) in which we grind and/or re-shape the contact surfaces of the upper and lower teeth so they work more harmoniously with each other, resulting in a more stable and comfortable bite.
