Easing Jaw Pain with TMJ Treatment
TMJ disorder is a condition that impacts the two joints on either side of the jaw. When they aren’t functioning properly, it can cause pain, clicking and popping, and even lockjaw. While TMJ can be caused by a variety of underlying issues, Dr. Haydon and our team have the knowledge and technology to diagnose and treat your condition to help you find relief.

Occlusal Splints
Occlusal splints are customized orthotic appliances that are made to shift your jaw into its ideal position as you sleep. Over time, you should notice your symptoms and jaw pain begin to lessen, because as you wear your splint regularly, it will help reduce the tension and strain in your jaw joints.
Equilibration/ Occlusal Adjustment
When TMJ disorder is caused by an ill-fitting restoration or misshapen tooth, we may recommend occlusal adjustment. This process involves adjusting the restoration or tooth to create a more even bite, removing the underlying source of strain or tension on one or both of your jaw joints.
