Understanding TMJ and Bruxism

TMJ refers to issues affecting the temporomandibular joint, the hinge that connects your jaw to your skull, while bruxism is the chronic grinding or clenching of teeth, often during sleep. The two conditions frequently overlap and can lead to jaw pain, headaches, worn enamel, and disrupted sleep when left unaddressed.

Benefits of TMJ and Bruxism Treatment

1.

Pain Relief

Targeted treatment eases jaw pain and facial tension that often accompany TMJ and chronic teeth grinding.

2.

Protects Your Teeth

A custom night guard shields your teeth from the wear and damage caused by ongoing grinding and clenching.

3.

Improved Sleep

Reducing nighttime grinding allows for deeper, more restful sleep and helps you wake up feeling genuinely refreshed.

4.

Reduced Headaches

Easing jaw tension and nighttime grinding can significantly reduce the frequency and intensity of tension headaches and migraines.

Many people don’t realize they grind their teeth at night because it happens entirely during sleep. Often, a partner or dentist is the first to notice the signs.

TMJ and Bruxism FAQs

If you have any questions about TMJ and bruxism, we’ve got answers.

Can TMJ and bruxism go away on their own?

Mild cases sometimes improve with stress management and lifestyle changes, but chronic symptoms typically need professional treatment to fully resolve. Without intervention, ongoing grinding and jaw strain can lead to more serious dental damage over time.

How much does TMJ and bruxism treatment cost?

The cost depends on the treatment recommended, with custom night guards being the most common starting point, and our team will review pricing transparently before beginning.

Does dental insurance cover TMJ and bruxism treatment?

Coverage varies by plan, and some PPO dental insurance plans include benefits for custom night guards or TMJ-related treatments. Westgrove Dental Care is in-network with most major PPO providers, and our team will review your specific benefits before your appointment.
