There are numerous causes for your TMJ pain. Teeth grinding, injuries to the jaw, misalignment, and arthritis are just a few. You may experience symptoms such as clicking or popping sounds when you chew, increased tooth sensitivity, and pain in your jaw, neck, and head. If you notice these symptoms, or your dentist spots increased wear and tear on your teeth, you may benefit from TMJ treatment.
Creating a customized mouthguard is our most popular solution for treating your TMJ disorder. It will:
Your dentist will draw up a plan for your bite guard using digital scans of your teeth. This information is sent out to a trusted outside lab that will create your oral appliance. Once it’s ready, you will return to our office to pick it up. Your dentist will also discuss helpful tips for lessening your TMJ symptoms.
In addition to traditional mouthguards, clear aligners can play a significant role in managing your symptoms. Properly aligned teeth distribute biting and chewing forces more evenly, reducing stress on the jaw joints. Your dentist can create a treatment plan that corrects the positioning of your bite. It can help treat the root cause of some of your TMJ issues.

I have been coming to this practice for years. Dr. Ruiz is the best! Dawn is my favorite dental hygienist. She is very thorough and I always leave the office feeling like my teeth are sparkling! The front desk staff are very helpful and friendly.
Great service & great people!
Dr. Hanna was very friendly and explained everything in full details. Walked me through my treatment plan step by step. Definitely made sure I understand it all and comfortable with the steps.
Awesome people very good with scheduling and very friendly from the front desk to the hygienists and doctor no complaints life long dentist for sure.
Had a dental emergency today and I did not care for my previous dentist so I decided to try a new office. Every single member of the staff here was phenomenal. They squeezed me in last minute, and truly took care of me. Everyone here is miles above every other dental practice I’ve been to.
I was skeptical about going to another dentist because I’ve had so much wrong done to me in the past. But Dr Ruiz is a miracle worker. His assistants are caring and general. Ever since he worked on my tooth, I haven’t felt any pain. And for that, I will be forever grateful. This is the place to go to. Great doctors, staff very friendly and clean office
This practice, it’s staff and doctors, (especially Dr. Ruiz) is knowledgeable, professional, caring, friendly, and will take care of all your dental needs from back to front. I highly recommend this establishment to all who need their smile to end up looking amazing. 😁 …
Great customer service, wouldn’t go anywhere else for dental work. Extremely friendly and understanding. Great staff!!
Staff is very kind and helpful. They will take the time to answer any questions you have. I drive over 40 min to use them as my dentist and for any dental work
Very welcoming and friendly staff. They were nice and dealt with my problem instead of telling me to come back. Goes above and beyond to take care of you and to get you in. I was very happy and so are my teeth.
I went in last Tuesday and I was with Dr. Kareta. She was amazing!! She was very soothing and kept me calm during my procedure, and her assistant Christine was very professional. They also stopped and let me take breaks, if needed, and were very sweet/talkative through out the process. I really appreciate this, shows how much they care for their patients!!! I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone scared of getting any dental work. Thank you all!!!
TMJ problems typically won’t go away without treatment. TMJ pain is usually caused when the joints in your jaw become inflamed. This commonly occurs because of two habits that put your jaw under pressure: clenching and teeth grinding. We can make a custom mouthguard for you that will stop these behaviors so that your jaw can heal.
Sometimes, yes. Inflammation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) can trigger discomfort in the adjacent muscles of the head and neck, sometimes mistaken for migraines. Wearing a mouthguard can help ease the pain stemming from TMJ inflammation and potentially provide relief from headaches.
If you’ve been experiencing persistent jaw discomfort, difficulty chewing, or unusual sounds when moving your mouth, you may be dealing with a TMJ disorder. These conditions can cause a range of symptoms, including facial pain, headaches, and even ear discomfort. We encourage you to visit our practice if you’re noticing any of these signs. Early intervention can make a significant difference in managing TMJ issues and improving your overall oral health.
