TMJ/TMD Therapy

Fast and Permanent Relief from Migraines and Joint Pain

Do you suffer from migraine headaches, sore teeth, or aching jaws? This pain could be caused by “clenching” your teeth while sleeping. This clenching at night can cause painful morning headaches, cracked teeth, and sore muscles in the face, neck, and back. Dr. Silva will use advanced technology to correct your bite and alleviate pain and discomfort.

Who is affected? Temporomandibular joint disease (also known as TMD or TMJ) affects 75 million people at any one time. It is a chronic, degenerative disease that may take years to develop. People who suffer from TMJ disorder have a structural imbalance in their jaw-to-skull relationship, caused by an unhealthy bite. This disease causes the following:

  • Alteration of the position of the temporomandibular joint by placing excessive pressure on the joint and tissues around them.
  • Twisting the jaw into a strained position, further affecting the muscles in the face, back, neck and shoulders.

What are the symptoms? You may be a candidate for neuromuscular dentistry if you experience any of the following symptoms on a regular basis:

  • Headaches or migraines
  • Unexplained loose teeth
  • Worn, chipped or cracked teeth
  • Cracking, chipping or breaking dental restorations
  • Pain or soreness around the jaw joints Pain in teeth that seems to move around
  • Neck, shoulder or back pain Facial pain
  • Clicking or grating sounds in the jaw joints Limited movement or locking jaw
  • Numbness in your fingers and arms Congestion or stuffiness of the ears
