Are You Suffering From TMJ Disorder?

Your temporomandibular joints (TMJ) connect your jawbone to your skull. Pain in this area is often called TMJ disorder or just TMJ or TMD for short.

Your symptoms of TMJ may include…

Trouble chewing or biting
Hearing a popping or clicking as you open or close your mouth
Feeling pain in your face, especially around your jaw
Suffering frequent headaches, earaches, or lockjaw

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, you may be among the millions who have TMD, also known as TMJ disorder.

At The Winning Smile Dental Group, we’re here to do more than just manage your TMJ pain — our goal is to solve your TMJ disorder at the root, ending your pain once and for all. We take a comprehensive approach to treating TMJ disorder and are always accepting new patients. Call today to schedule an appointment.

Questions? We Can Help!

What causes TMJ?

There may be a variety of underlying causes. The most common reasons for developing TMJ disorder are misaligned teeth or jaw, teeth grinding or clenching, poor posture, and stress.

Does TMJ go away on its own?

Sometimes! If temporary lifestyle factors are causing your jaw pain (like stress or poor posture) then correcting these issues can help TMJ go away on its own. However, if the cause of your TMJ is something more serious, like missing or misaligned teeth or an injury, a dentist’s care is necessary to effectively resolve the issue.

Why is my TMJ worse in the morning?

If you notice your jaw hurts in the morning, it’s likely that you are clenching and grinding your teeth at night. Make sure to talk to your dentist right away. We can get you fit for a custom night guard to ensure a safer, more comfortable night’s sleep.

What’s the best sleeping position for TMJ?

The best sleeping position for those facing TMJ disorder is on your back. This keeps your head and neck properly aligned and also lowers your risk of teeth clenching and grinding.
