Dr. Dick Davenport on Tooth Grinding

The tooth grinding is a problem that we notice a lot. It's a huge problem where patients truly destroy their teeth for the grinding of tooth to tooth contact. We control it by using a mouth guard to separate the teeth so that you cannot have tooth to tooth contact. Most tooth grinding takes place at night time while we sleep, so you wear the night guard at night time. If you don't stop the grinding by separating the teeth, over time, your teeth will get shorter at a minimum, or you will break them, possibly to the point that you lose one or more teeth. Then if they get shorter over time, it ages you more quickly. You'll look older than you really are with short teeth.

Our expert dentists will customize an oral appliance to put an end to your problem. Despite their unobtrusive design, these devices can:

  • Help relieve TMJ pain by reducing pain and pressure
  • Prevent damage to your teeth from clenching and grinding
  • Diminish and even eliminate other symptoms like headaches and migraines

If you find that you’re grinding or clenching your teeth, call us at 956-242-6745 for help before you damage your smile!

We’ll Help You Find A Solution For Your Jaw Pain

Dysfunction of your temporomandibular joint can be caused by a variety of things, including stress, inflammation, or injury. Because of this, symptoms can also vary. Either way, it can be a debilitating condition.

To treat it effectively, we’ll craft a special mouthguard to temporarily adjust your jaw position. This repositioning will relieve the stress on your joint and ease your discomfort. It will also protect your enamel from damage.

Pain in your face and head is hard to ignore – it can cause difficulty concentrating and may affect your work or school. Physical symptoms include:

  • Jaw Pain
  • Popping/Clicking Jaw
  • Difficulty Chewing
  • Lockjaw
  • Facial Pain
  • Neck Pain
  • Earaches
  • Headaches

Repair Your Jaw & Damaged Teeth

Once we’ve helped you stop grinding your teeth, we can repair any damage to your enamel with solutions such as dental crowns or veneers. Your newly corrected smile will look as good as it feels!

To make an appointment for TMJ treatment on Junction Drive in Laredo, contact our team by calling 956-242-6745 or using our online form.

Common Questions About TMJ Treatment

Does TMJ treatment work?

Most people who suffer from TMJ dysfunction find relief with a custom-made mouthguard, the TMJ treatment we use. Usually worn at night, a mouthguard relieves painful pressure on your jaw and prevents you from grinding your teeth. A grinding habit not only contributes to TMJ pain, but it can also damage your tooth enamel.

How long does TMJ treatment take?

There is no standard length for TMJ treatment. It depends on many factors, including the severity of your symptoms. Since a mouthguard not only relieves TMJ pain but also prevents damage to teeth caused by grinding, many patients make it a permanent addition to their bedtime routine.

Will insurance pay for TMJ treatment?

While a custom TMJ mouthguard may be covered under a dental or medical insurance plan, not all plans cover them. Our team will help you determine if your plan offers coverage and will help maximize your benefits. If it doesn’t, we will also work with you to find the right payment option.
