You may be one of the many undiagnosed TMD Disorder sufferers. Over 10 million Americans suffer from some form of TMD Disorder, with an even higher number being migraine headache sufferers.
The Tempromandibular Joints connect the jaw bone to the skull, and are located just in front of each ear. Important in many ways, the Tempromandibular Joints are necessary for opening and closing the mouth, chewing, swallowing, breathing, talking, yawning and kissing. Tempromandibular Joints operate as a ‘ball and socket’, and depend on proper alignment of muscles, and often teeth to work smoothly.
The team at Anacapa Dental Art Institute is trained in TMD Diagnosis and treatment. We aspire to help you recover from this condition.
Treatment may include the use of a Neuromuscular Suppression Device worn comfortably while you sleep. The device is fitted over the two upper front teeth and prevents the back teeth from touching during sleep. This treatment aims to reduce muscular activity, which is often the source of TMD symptoms and migraines.
