TMJ - Temporomandibular Joint Syndrome

TMD Diagnosis and TMJ Treatment in Jupiter - Palm Beach Gardens, FL

TMJ syndrome causes tenderness and pain in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The TMJ connects the lower jaw (mandible) to the skull (temporal bone) in front of the ear. The TMJ allows you to talk, chew and yawn. Comprised of muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and bones, you have two TMJs, one on each side of your jaw. TMJ disorder, or TMD, can cause headaches, neck pain, a jaw that is locked in position or difficult to open, problems biting, and popping sounds when you bite.

Most cases of TMD are temporary and TMJ treatment is usually conservative. In cases of persistent symptoms of TMD, recommendations may range from medications to a mouthguard to help keep you from grinding your teeth at night. In very rare cases, surgery may be required to repair or replace the joint.

Advanced procedures for TMJ treatment can include the following:

  • Corrective dental treatment. TMD is often caused by a "bad bite" or malocclusion. If this is the diagnosis, your TMJ treatment will include improving your bite by balancing the biting surfaces of your teeth, replacing missing teeth, or replacing needed fillings or dental crowns.
  • Arthrocentesis. This procedure involves insertion of a needle into the TMJ so that fluid can be irrigated through the joint to remove debris and inflammatory byproducts.
  • Surgery. In rare cases surgery may be required for TMJ treatment to repair or remove the disk between your mandible and temporal bone. When advanced osteoarthritis is present, a partial or total TMJ replacement may help remove bone-on-bone contact and improve both joint mechanics and motion.
