At Active Dental we treat TMJ Syndrome with Orthotic Therapy.
This has a clear 4 step process that is easily administered by us to remove your symptoms forever.
- Bite Assessment
- Discovering your ideal bite
- Recording your ideal bite
- Achieving your ideal bite with Orthotic Therapy
TMJ Orthotic therapy requires you to wear an unobtrusive upper Orthotic
at night and a lower Orthotic during the day. The Orthotics are clear
and shaped to look like your natural teeth and most of our patients find
them very easy to wear. When in place, the Orthotic will reposition
your jaw into a more relaxed ideal bite. Wearing the TMJ Orthotic will
also start to reduce any jaw and facial pain you have been experiencing
along with the other symptoms associated with TMJ Syndrome.
Some
people find that their symptoms resolve instantly and others find it
may take a few months before their symptoms resolve. Every person
responds differently to Orthotic therapy, however the vast majority will
experience an improvement in their TMJ symptoms.
