TMJ & TMD Disorder Treatment

At Lynn Haven Dental Specialists, we understand how temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and temporomandibular disorder (TMD) issues can affect your quality of life. Our experienced dental professionals are skilled in providing effective TMJ and TMD treatments to alleviate pain, improve jaw function, and restore your oral health.

TMJ and TMD disorders can manifest as various symptoms, including jaw pain, headaches, clicking or popping sounds in the jaw, difficulty opening or closing the mouth, and facial discomfort. These conditions can result from factors such as jaw misalignment, teeth grinding (bruxism), stress, or arthritis.

Our dentists will conduct a thorough evaluation, including a detailed examination of your jaw joints, muscles, and bite. Diagnostic imaging, such as X-rays or advanced imaging techniques, may be utilized to gain a comprehensive understanding of your condition. Based on this assessment, our dental professionals will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

At Lynn Haven Dental Specialists, we are dedicated to improving your overall well-being by effectively addressing TMJ and TMD issues. If you are experiencing any symptoms, schedule a consultation with us to explore your treatment options and start your journey to relief and restored oral health.

"I can’t say enough good things about this dentist and his team. We recently moved to the area so we needed to find a new dentist. So glad we found Dr Hargraves! First of all, the hygienists that my husband and I had were both very friendly and very thorough which we really appreciated. Dr Hargraves is very easy to talk to and addresses any concerns that you have. "

"My husband and I have had dental implants placed by Dr. Eberle. We cannot say enough about Dr. Eberle and his entire staff. To start with, they are punctual, you are not kept waiting for an appointment. They are very pleasant and return your phone calls. Dr. Eberle is extremely competent, easy to talk to, and painless. Need I say more?"
