If you have ever wondered about that popping or clicking sound your jaw makes, you may have something called temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) . This condition can be treated by having our Hoboken neuromuscular dentists examine you and provide treatment options.
There are a number of procedures our TMJ dentists can provide in order to eliminate any of the following symptoms:
- Limited motion in your jaw
- Facial, neck, or shoulder pain
- Ringing in your ears
- Lockjaw
- Uneven, uncomfortable bite
- Swelling of your face or mouth on one side
- Inexplicable headaches or migraines
Dr. Frank and his team have extensive experience in evaluating jaw-to-bite relationships, and we have experience with state-of-the-art treatments such as neuromuscular orthotic appliances and DNA Expansion Orthodontic Therapy.
No matter which type of TMJ treatment Dr. Frank recommends, it is important to keep up on your regular dental appointments and follow our dentist's recommendations. That way, both you and our Hoboken dental team can monitor how effectively your treatment is going.
If you are experiencing TMJ pain, please contact the Practice at Maxwell Place using the form at the right side of the page or call 201-792-9400 today to schedule a consultation. Dr. Frank DePaola serves patients in Hoboken and Jersey City, New Jersey.
