What is TMJ Disorder?

TMJ disorder affects the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jaw to your skull. This complex joint allows you to talk, chew, and yawn. When it's not functioning properly, it can cause significant pain and interfere with daily activities. TMJ disorders can result from injury, arthritis, teeth grinding, stress, or misaligned bite.

Our Treatment Approach

Dr. Adam Schneider, Dr. Katie Staub, or Dr. Thomas Tran will perform a comprehensive evaluation to diagnose your TMJ disorder and identify contributing factors. Treatment may include custom oral appliances to reduce grinding and clenching, bite adjustment to correct alignment issues, physical therapy exercises, stress management techniques, and lifestyle modifications. We create personalized treatment plans based on your specific needs.
