Frequently Asked Questions About TMJ Treatment
Find clear answers to the most common concerns about TMJ treatment. Learn how it works, what to expect, and how it can transform your daily life.
What are the common symptoms that I might have TMJ disorder?
If you’re experiencing persistent jaw pain, headaches, earaches, difficulty chewing, clicking or popping sounds in your jaw/mouth, or tension upon waking, these could be signs of TMJ. Many patients also notice neck or shoulder pain linked to jaw dysfunction.
What is a TMJ disorder?
TMJ disorder (Temporomandibular Joint Disorder) is a condition affecting the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. It occurs when the joint connecting your jaw to your skull becomes misaligned, inflamed, or overworked. This can lead to pain, restricted movement, and a variety of symptoms like headaches, jaw locking, and ear discomfort.
Can TMJ cause symptoms like headaches, ear ringing, or fatigue?
Yes, TMJ disorders can lead to secondary symptoms such as headaches, earaches, ringing in the ears, and even neck and shoulder tension. Addressing the root cause of your TMJ can help alleviate these associated issues.
What happens during my first consultation?
During your first consultation, Dr. Gavin will conduct a patient assessment and explain your condition in detail. In most cases, additional medical tests may be required to confirm the diagnosis before determining the best treatment approach.
What are the treatments for TMJ disorders?
Treatment always depends on the severity of the condition. TMJ is a mechanical issue that does not heal on its own. Conservative treatments may offer relief (not solution) in the early stages, but if symptoms persist, worsen, or significantly limit jaw function, TMJ Arthroscopy is the most effective and minimally invasive procedure that can truly restore function and relieve pain.
What exactly is TMJ Arthroscopy?
TMJ Arthroscopy is an advanced and highly specialized technique used to treat jaw joint disorders with precision. It is a minimally invasive procedure performed by experienced specialists, requiring no incisions or cuts. This technique allows for effective treatment while ensuring a smooth and swift recovery.
Why is this treatment better than other options?
This treatment directly addresses the source of TMJ pain rather than just masking symptoms. It’s minimally invasive, ensures faster recovery, and delivers long-term relief—unlike mouthguards, painkillers, or temporary fixes.
Is TMJ treatment painful or invasive?
Dr. Gavin is a highly experienced TMJ specialist, mastering a minimally invasive treatment approach. The majority of patients report no pain or discomfort during the process and experience significant relief afterward.
What is the recovery process like?
Recovery is swift and straightforward. Patients can resume normal activities very soon. The post-procedure process is simple, requiring a few physiotherapy sessions and, in some cases, a customized mouth device to be used only while sleeping.
Why is TMJ not a dental problem?
TMJ disorders affect the jaw joint and muscles, not the teeth. You cannot treat a joint issue by working on the teeth—the solution lies inside the joint itself. TMJ treatment requires the expertise of a specialized physician. In fact, repositioning teeth can often worsen the problem by forcing the joint into an unnatural position.
