| Do you experience any of the following.....
- Headache, jaw, ear, or facial pain
- Being unable to open the mouth comfortably
- Clicking, popping or grating sounds in the jaw joint
- Locking of the jaw when attempting to open the mouth
- Headaches
- A bite that feels uncomfortable or "off"
- Neck, shoulder and back pain
- Swelling on the side of the face and ringing in the ears.
- Ear pain
- Decreased hearing
- Dizziness and vision problems or other similar problems?
If you answered "YES" to any of these symptoms, then it is likely you have TMJ syndrome... and we can help you get out of pain. Keep in mind that occasional discomfort in the jaw joint or chewing muscles is common, and is not always a cause for concern. However, if the pain is severe and lasts more than a few weeks, I recommend coming in and letting us do a simple evaluation so that we can see if we can help you.
