What to Do if You Are Experiencing Jaw Pain Headaches or Clicking Sounds in Your Jaw
At Douglas Dentistry in Trinity, FL, we believe a little knowledge goes a long way toward a healthier smile. Here's what every patient should understand about what to do if you are experiencing jaw pain headaches or clicking sounds in your jaw.
Understanding Jaw Pain
Jaw pain, headaches, and clicking sounds can point to a TMJ/TMD disorder affecting the joints and muscles of your jaw. The causes vary — from grinding to bite issues — but relief is very possible with the right care.
We assess your jaw and bite to find the source.
Finding Relief
Treatment may include a custom night guard, bite adjustments, or other conservative therapies. The goal is lasting comfort, not just masking symptoms.
