At the Precision Dental Clinic in Dubai, UAE, we understand that your temporomandibular joints, or TMJs—the joints on the side of your head that connect your jaw to your skull—are among the most intricate joints in your body. They’re engaged whenever you talk, express yourself, chew, yawn, and perform countless other daily mouth movements. Thus, any disorder in these joints can cause a wide range of uncomfortable symptoms.
Many individuals suffering from TMJ disorders go undiagnosed for years because the symptoms can be a little tricky to attribute directly to TMJ troubles. However, recognizing common warning signs is the best way to bring these concerns to our team’s attention. Some of the more typical signs may include the following:
Identifying the best treatment plan for TMJ disorder greatly depends on understanding the primary cause of the condition, which varies from patient to patient. For instance, some patients might develop pain due to habits like biting nails or chewing hard objects. Simple lifestyle changes could alleviate their discomfort. For those who clench or grind their teeth, a condition known as bruxism that is often coexisting with TMJ/TMD, our dental team might suggest a customized oral appliance be worn during sleep to minimize strain on the jaw. This can provide effective relief from TMJ-related pain and headaches.
If you suspect that your oral discomfort may be due to TMJ disorder, we encourage you to reach out to our team at Precision Dental Clinic today to schedule an appointment. Once we have conducted a comprehensive evaluation of your smile, we will collaborate with you to pinpoint the immediate source of your pain and suggest treatment options to enhance your oral health and overall well-being.
