of Jaw Joint Pain
and Discomfort
TMJ Treatment

TMJ disorders rarely cause noticeable problems at first, so they are often ignored. However, if left untreated, symptoms can worsen over time, leading to pain, headaches, facial discomfort, and even difficulty opening the mouth.
Using 3D CT imaging, we accurately assess the patient’s condition and provide treatment tailored to their individual needs.

Specialized Treatment for Healthy Gums
Temporomandibular Joint Treatment

The temporomandibular joint treatment protects the joint from excessive impact to prevent further damage and stabilizes its function.
Depending on the symptoms, appropriate habit modification, medication, or occlusal appliance therapy may be applied.

THERAPY 01

Medication Therapy

Medication is administered when there is inflammation in the joint or myofascial pain, and in some cases, it may be used long-term.
THERAPY 02

Physical Therapy

This treatment applies deep heat to the areas affected by jaw joint pain to relax tense muscles, while low-level laser therapy aids in repairing damaged muscles.
THERAPY 03

Botox Therapy

Botox is used to relax the muscles, reducing strain on the temporomandibular joint. It also provides aesthetic benefits, such as improving the appearance of a prominent jawline (square jaw).
THERAPY 04

Splint Therapy

Wearing a splint corrects the alignment of the teeth during biting, relaxes the muscles in the head and neck, and protects the teeth.
