Important Information about TMJ Treatment
TMJ, or temporomandibular joint disorder, is a painful condition that affects countless people each and every day. If you sometimes experience pain in your neck or head, or if you hear a popping sound when you open your mouth wide, you may have TMJ. Dr. Robertson understands how the pain of TMJ can impact the quality of your life, which is why he offers a variety of effective treatments to alleviate this condition.
The temporomandibular joint is located where your jaw opens and closes. The pain associated with TMJ comes as a result of the nerves located around this joint. Although it is more common for women than for men, anyone at any age can develop TMJ disorder. The longer it is left untreated, the higher the risk that you will damage muscles, your teeth, or even the TMJ joint itself. If you believe you may be suffering from TMJ, contact Dr. Robertson right away to schedule an appointment.
