The causes of TMD are varied and can include muscle tension, arthritis, or even an imbalance in how your teeth meet when you bite. At Cure Dental Clinic, our team takes a thorough approach to diagnosing TMD by carefully examining your jaw, mouth, and overall bite alignment. We use advanced imaging techniques and your medical history to determine the underlying cause of your TMD. Once we understand the root cause, we will discuss customized treatment options, such as bite correction, physical therapy, or even oral appliances to help manage pain and prevent further damage. Our goal is to ensure that the solution we offer fits your lifestyle and promotes long-term relief. Understanding these underlying factors is crucial because it allows us to customize the treatment to your specific needs, ensuring the most effective and lasting results. By accurately diagnosing the problem, we can prevent future issues and avoid the need for more invasive treatments down the road.
