TMJ Disorders
Many people suffer from TMJ Disorders, causing painful headaches, stiff jaw muscles or sensative teeth. This can be a result of clenching (brixism), grinding, or both. Without treatment, teeth may become worn down or cracked, and muscles become inflamed and stiff.
In order to terat this condition, we may suggest the following:
- A Night Guard: Protects teeth from wear and fractures. it will also reduce the bite force by up to 85%!
- Bite Adjustment: Balances the occlusal plane to allow for an even bite with less “slide”.
- Botox: Relaxes the muscles that chew or clench, providing relief from tension.

Peggy RobinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had anxiety about going to the dentist from my childhood years, which kept me from being a regular dental patient. However, due to having an extensive procedure recently, I was kept pain free by Dr. Brian. He & his staff are true professionals and I highly recommend this practice. Today, I went back for a cleaning with their wonderful hygienist, Elizabeth! Thank you to Laurie, Trish and others for always making me feel so comfortable! I’m happy to say my fear of dental work is finally gone now that I’m in my 60’s! Rich GilletteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful dental care.
