TMJ Therapy
Customized Therapy to Relieve Pain
Do you suffer from migraines or tension headaches? Is unexplained facial, neck, shoulder, or jaw pain preventing you from living life to the fullest? You may have temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, a distressing condition with symptoms ranging from mild to debilitating. Dr. Foster offers non-surgical TMJ therapy to deliver relief and restore optimal function.
Two small joints in front of your ears control the smooth motion of your jaw. Stress, trauma, bruxism (teeth grinding), a misaligned bite, and a variety of other factors can aggravate these joints. The result is pain and pressure that can ruin your day and negatively impact your life.
Dr. Foster will perform a thorough TMJ examination to determine the cause of your discomfort. Many patients experience a return to pain-free living with a custom-fitted oral appliance called a nightguard. This small, comfortable piece of acrylic eases stressed jaw muscles and promotes proper alignment to alleviate TMJ-induced discomfort. It's FDA-approved to treat migraines and other types of headaches, so you can get the relief you deserve!
