Treat Your TMJ and Reduce Jaw Pain and Discomfort

A visit to your dentist in San Diego, CA can help reduce the jaw pain and other problems associated with TMJ.

What Is TMJ and Why Does It Happen?

TMJ, also referred to as TMD (Temporomandibular Joint Disorder), is a condition affecting the jaw joint and the surrounding muscles. This causes jaw pain to radiate throughout the head and neck, often resulting in severe discomfort all day, as well as other issues.

There is no one reason that TMJ occurs. Some people are simply born with a precondition that leads to problems with the way their upper and lower jaws fit together. Other individuals may experience a traumatic event that shifts the jaw. Sometimes, teeth grinding – called bruxism – is the culprit.

For almost two decades, Dr. Susan Hong has been helping people with TMJ. Call our office in San Diego, CA for an appointment to discuss your own TMJ concerns: Call: 858-247-3020 There is help and hope!
