BOTOX Injections
BOTOX Injections
To help decrease the pain and improve the mobility of your jaw joints, we can provide BOTOX injections. This method of treatment blocks muscle nerves so that they do not cause the jaw to become overworked. It is often used in combination with other TMJ treatment options to deliver more cohesive and successful results.

Equilibration/Occlusal Adjustments
Equilibration/Occlusal Adjustments
If the alignment of your bite is causing your TMJ problems, we can suggest equilibration/occlusal adjustment. This process involves altering and reshaping certain teeth so that they come together properly, minimizing any pressure and tension that is otherwise placed on your jaw joints.

Occlusal Splints
Occlusal Splints
An occlusal splint (or bite guard) is a removable oral appliance that helps reduce pain and tension throughout the jaw joints and muscles. When worn, the comfortable device delivers a more balanced bite and prevents teeth grinding and clenching, allowing you to enjoy a better quality of life.
