Get Freedom From TMJ Problems With Our Help

Your temporomandibular joints (TMJ) are the joints on either side of your head that connect your jaw to your skull. When they become irritated – for reasons that aren’t fully understood – the pain can be intense. Daily activities like eating, talking, laughing, and yawning can become nearly unbearable.

Our team offers you hope for your TMJ problems. We can make a night guard right here in our office that will significantly reduce or completely eliminate your jaw pain. Your custom-fit oral appliance will gently adjust your lower jaw forward to alleviate the tension on your TMJs.

The result will be a jaw that feels normal. When your mouth and jaw don’t hurt, you’ll be able to enjoy everyday activities again like dining out, having conversations, and even watching a funny movie – without you thinking about opening and closing your mouth.

Plus, your TMJ night guard will stop you from grinding your teeth when you sleep, which many people do without any awareness. Left untreated, teeth grinding (also known as bruxism) can damage your tooth enamel and eventually require dental restorations such as crowns to repair. Since teeth grinding is also linked to tension and migraine headaches, you’ll experience fewer of those as well.

The time is right to do something about your jaw pain. Call Sabal Dental today at 361-256-5958 for TMJ treatment in Corpus Christi. You can also schedule online.

Common Questions About TMJ Treatment / Teeth Grinding

Is TMJ treatment covered by medical insurance?

Your TMJ treatment may be covered in part by medical insurance, depending on the terms of your policy. We encourage you to check with your individual insurance company to determine what will be covered and how much your portion will be. You’re always welcome to use third-party financing through CareCredit to help with your investment.

Is TMJ treatment expensive?

While we won’t know the exact cost of your treatment until we’ve had the opportunity to examine your jaw and take a set of images, the TMJ treatment you receive from us should be less expensive than more invasive forms of treatment such as surgery. We’ll make sure you know your cost before we proceed with any TMJ treatment.

Does TMJ treatment work?

Our TMJ treatment has been able to help many patients with their jaw pain and tenderness. Our treatment usually focuses on using a custom-fit oral appliance that you wear while sleeping. It will move your lower jaw forward slightly to reduce tension on your TMJ. The result will be less jaw pain, reduced tension in your neck and shoulders, and the elimination of harmful teeth grinding.
