Restore Comfort With a Precision TMJ Appliance
A custom TMJ appliance provides targeted relief by repositioning your jaw into proper alignment while you sleep. This specially designed device reduces pressure on your jaw joint and prevents teeth grinding that often accompanies TMJ disorders.
You'll likely experience less jaw pain within just a few weeks of consistent use. The appliance also helps relax the muscles around your jaw and decreases tension headaches.
Creating your custom appliance is a comfortable, precise process. Our iTero digital scanner captures 3-D images of your teeth without messy traditional impressions. These detailed scans allow our lab to craft an appliance that fits perfectly, ensuring maximum effectiveness and comfort.
Once your appliance is ready, your dentist will carefully adjust it to your specific bite pattern. Our team will also provide simple care instructions so you can begin your journey toward TMJ relief immediately.
Protect Your Teeth While Treating TMJ Discomfort
Your TMJ appliance creates a protective barrier that stops destructive teeth grinding and clenching during sleep. This physical separation between your upper and lower teeth shields your enamel from excessive forces that can cause wear, chips, cracks, and flattening of your tooth surfaces.
The appliance helps preserve your natural tooth structure and maintains your smile's appearance and function. Preventing enamel damage with a TMJ appliance helps you avoid costly restorative treatments. Without protection, grinding can lead to the need for crowns, bonding, or other treatments for damaged teeth. The device also reduces pressure on existing dental restorations like fillings, extending their lifespan and protecting your investment in your smile.
If a misaligned bite is contributing to your TMJ problems, your dentist may suggest Invisalign® treatment. You can be assured of excellent results, thanks to Dr. Nair's participation in Molis Coaching, a program based on insights from thousands of successful cases.
