"Dr. Winters, what TMJ disorder treatments are available?"
Proper diagnosis is critical to make sure you
receive treatment for your particular condition. At Picture Perfect Smiles we will only
recommend treatment after conducting a thorough health history, clinical
exam, taking appropriate X-rays, and perhaps confirming the condition
through other diagnostic tests.
At Picture Perfect Smiles we may prescribe a multiple-phase treatment plan.
Only minor corrective treatment may be needed. Treatment may be simple
or require more steps for alleviating the condition, depending on the degree
of severity. Only with a thorough history and examination, some of
which may be with the computer technology we have present, will we be able
to decide together what will be the best treatment for you.
In most cases we treat at Picture Perfect Smiles, the symptoms related to
TMJ
disorders can be successfully treated to reduce or eliminate your
discomfort. Postponement of treatment usually results in more damage to
the joint, muscles, or teeth.
