What Symptoms Can TMJ Treatment Fix?

Temporomandibular joint disorder(TMJ or TMD) is a condition that can cause a wide variety of broadly scattered symptoms. The most common TMJ symptoms are:

  • Migraines and other headaches
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Facial pain
  • Jaw pain
  • Tooth pain
  • Clicking, grinding, or popping in the jaw
  • Locking jaw
  • Ringing, roaring, or buzzing in the ears (tinnitus)
  • Chipped, cracked, or worn teeth

Less common symptoms include numbness or tingling in the hands and fingers and many others.

Most of our TMJ patients have tried to find relief from these symptoms by working with a doctor, and have only incidentally discovered their symptoms were due to TMJ when we mentioned it during a dental exam. If you are suffering from these symptoms, don’t wait–seek relief today by working with a neuromuscular dentist.

If you are looking for relief from TMJ symptoms anywhere in the Lehigh Valley, including Allentown and Bethlehem, neuromuscular dentist Dr. Michael Kun can help. Please contact him today to schedule your consultation.
