Are you looking for a TMJ Specialist in Chicago? If so, we invite you to schedule a consultation with Dr. Margaret Mitchell by calling (312) 642-1014. It is critical that you see a dentist that appreciates the nature of TMJ and the need for caution during dental care. Otherwise, you could further irritate your jaw and muscles, leading to further discomfort.
If you wake up with discomfort in the jaw, temple, neck or shoulder muscles, Schedule an appointment with Dr. Mitchell. Tempomandibular Disease, or TMD tends to cluster in high stress professions (physicians, lawyers, consultants, traders, etc.) and is more likely to occur when the individual is experiencing a high level of stress. This stress leads to teeth grinding and clenching and the associated head, neck and shoulder pain.
Individuals experiencing symptoms of prolonged pain or sensitivity may require treatment for their TMJ problem. For many patients, TMD symptoms can be controlled with nightguard therapy. In some cases, Botox can also be used to better control TMD symptoms.
