Relieve Jaw Pain

A custom-made bite guard is one of the most effective solutions for managing TMJ disorder. Designed to fit your mouth precisely, a bite guard alleviates jaw tension, reduces teeth grinding, and prevents further damage.

Whether worn during the day or at night, it keeps your jaw in a more relaxed position, helping to ease pain and discomfort. Unlike store-bought guards, our custom bite guards are made using digital impressions for a perfect fit.

You can expect maximum comfort, making it easier to wear regularly. Plus, the durable materials provide long-lasting protection for your teeth, preventing wear and fractures caused by clenching.

With proper use, a custom guard not only relieves immediate symptoms but also promotes natural jaw healing over time.

Explore Alternative Solutions to Solve TMJ Problems

Depending on the cause of your TMJ disorder, your dentist may suggest alternative treatments such as Botox therapy and Invisalign to help address your TMJ pain.

Botox often works well for relaxing overactive jaw muscles that contribute to tension and clenching. You will typically experience relief within days and results that last for months.

If your TMJ disorder is linked to a misaligned bite, Invisalign can realign your teeth and jaw. Completing Invisalign treatment will reduce the strain on your temporomandibular joints.

Our team will assess your condition and recommend the best treatments for you. With our TMJ treatment in Germantown, you'll find relief from your jaw pain and teeth grinding habits.

The staff is super helpful and friendly! They take the time to explain and teach the young ones. They communicate via text occasionally which is much more convenient than getting on the phone sometimes! All good things from this group. They have a client for life. Even my eldest until he aged out of my family insurance came back for his cleanings rather than find one closer to his home!

Dr. Narendra and Brandy are the best. I had such a wonderful experience. The procedure went smooth. I did not feel any pain at all because they scheduled the proper time in between medication perfectly. No swelling or pain at all. Wonderful job.

Extremely friendly yet professional staff especially Brandy who works in scheduling. She has been so helpful to me especially during times when there was difficulty getting my insurer to approve specialty treatments. I would also like to point out all the pleasant conversations I had with Daisha... Extremely friendly yet professional staff especially Brandy who works in scheduling.

What causes a TMJ disorder?

TMJ disorder affects the temporomandibular joints that connect your jaw to your skull. Common causes include teeth grinding, jaw clenching, arthritis, and misaligned bites. Stress often contributes to muscle tension in the jaw area, worsening symptoms. Injuries to the jaw or joint can also trigger TMJ problems.

How do I know if I have TMJ disorder?

Signs include jaw pain, difficulty chewing, clicking sounds when opening your mouth, and tooth sensitivity. You might experience headaches, ear pain, or facial discomfort that seems to radiate from the jaw. Restricted jaw movement or locking of the jaw when opening or closing your mouth are telltale symptoms. If you notice these issues, it's time to schedule an appointment.

How effective are custom bite guards compared to store-bought options?

Custom bite guards provide significantly better results because they're precisely fitted to your unique dental anatomy. They're made using digital impressions, ensuring maximum comfort and effectiveness while you wear them. The professional-grade materials offer superior durability and protection against teeth grinding and clenching. Most patients experience noticeable relief within days of consistent use.
