OVERVIEW
"Dr. Saghafi, what TMJ disorder treatments are available?"
Proper diagnosis is critical to make sure you
receive treatment for your particular condition. At Smiles To Remember 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 Smiles To Remember 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. Some of these treatments include:
Taking a non-aspirin pain reliever or
prescription medications such as muscle relaxants, analgesics, or
anti-inflammatory drugs
Eating soft foods
Avoiding chewing gum
Applying moist heat or ice
Physical therapy
Teaching relaxation techniques to control
muscle tension
Stress management training techniques
Posture training
Wearing bite plates to eliminate the …harmful
effects of clenching or grinding the teeth, and a better positioning
of the jaws
Adjusting the bite, known as "occlusal
equilibration" involving removing interferences when the teeth touch
Replacement of defective restorations that
prevent the jaws from meeting properly
Orthodontics, to put the teeth in proper
position
Surgery
In most cases we treat at Smiles To Remember, 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.Â

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.
All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.
We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
