TMJ\/TMD Treatment in Chandler, AZ<\/h1><\/div>

Have you ever experienced that nagging jaw pain or that bothersome clicking sound when you chew? If you have, you might be dealing with TMJ\/TMD issues. But not to worry, Dr. Jennifer Enos at Dental Arts of Chandler is here to help you navigate and treat this pesky condition.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is TMJ\/TMD?<\/span><\/h2>\n

TMJ stands for Temporomandibular Joint \u2014 it’s the hinge connecting your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull. TMD, or Temporomandibular Disorders, refers to a variety of conditions affecting this joint and the muscles controlling jaw movement. Basically, it’s when the joint of your jaw starts acting a bit finicky.<\/span><\/p>\n

Causes of TMD<\/span><\/h2>\n

Let’s dig a bit deeper. What causes this jaw-joint issue?<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Jaw Injury<\/b>: A heavy blow or whiplash can lead to TMD.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Grinding or Clenching<\/b>: Habitual teeth grinding puts a lot of pressure on the joint.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Arthritis<\/b>: Just like other joints, your TMJ can fall victim to arthritis.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Dysfunction<\/b>: Sometimes the joint’s disc moves out of its proper alignment, leading to TMD.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Symptoms of TMD<\/span><\/h2>\n

    A few signs that your TMJ might be the source of your issues:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Pain<\/b>: This could be in the jaw, ear, or even the face.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Sound Effects<\/b>: Clicking, popping, or grating sounds when you chew or open your mouth.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Jaw Issues<\/b>: Difficulty in moving the jaw, or it getting “locked” in place.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Headaches<\/b>: Often mistaken for migraines or tension headaches.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Connections to Sleep Apnea<\/span><\/h2>\n

      Here\u2019s an interesting connection: TMD and sleep apnea often go hand-in-hand. Both can be the result of a misaligned bite or jaw issues. Plus, if you’re clenching or grinding because of sleep apnea, that could worsen TMD. It’s a cyclical issue. If you’re experiencing symptoms of both, it’s essential to mention them to Dr. Enos.<\/span><\/p>\n

      What Are Some Symptoms of Sleep Apnea?<\/span><\/h3>\n

      If you aren\u2019t sure if you need to talk to a doctor about sleep apnea, consider the following symptoms:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Loud snoring<\/b>: Much louder than normal snoring.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Stopping breathing<\/b>: If you find yourself gasping for air in the night, take note of this important symptom.<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Difficulty staying asleep<\/b>: with so much difficulty breathing at night, you\u2019re bound to wake up a few times!<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Daytime exhaustion<\/b>: Lacking a full night\u2019s sleep will interfere with your daily energy.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Dr. Enos can help you with your TMD issues, but if you want to find out more about sleep apnea, talk to your doctor. Our team at Dental Arts of Chandler can address the TMD\/sleep apnea cycle from there!<\/span><\/p>\n

        • Mouth Guards<\/b>: Especially if grinding is the problem, a night guard can be a savior.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Medical Procedures<\/b>: In severe cases, there are a variety of procedures, from injections to surgery, to help you find relief.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
