At our practice, we understand the complexities of the jaw joints and the impact of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). If you are living with jaw pain, we are here to offer comprehensive, effective solutions.
The jaw joints, also known as the temporomandibular joints, are pivotal in your ability to eat, speak, yawn, and even open your mouth. Located just in front of your ears, these joints can become damaged and significantly impact your daily life.
Jaw damage can arise from various causes, including trauma, injury, infection, inflammation, arthritis, muscle spasm, stress, poor posture, dental problems, and more. Understanding these causes is crucial in addressing the disorder effectively.
Temporomandibular disorders affect a significant portion of the population, causing symptoms such as jaw pain, headaches, neck pain, stiffness, difficulty chewing, and popping sounds. TMD is common and can occur due to factors like a bad bite or persistent teeth grinding, often related to stress. Immediate relief is essential, and that’s where our specialized TMJ therapy comes into play.
Our approach begins with understanding the root cause of your symptoms. Grinding, clenching, and a bad bite can lead to overworked jaw muscles, resulting in pain and discomfort. We focus on identifying these issues and providing effective treatments to alleviate them.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to seek professional help:
Ignoring these symptoms can lead to worsening conditions and potentially permanent damage to the joint.
We offer a range of treatments tailored to your specific needs, from occlusal adjustments to custom occlusal splints.
Many TMJ disorders stem from an improper bite. We aim to correct this through occlusal adjustment, reshaping certain biting surfaces to eliminate sensitive areas and distribute pressure evenly.
Our custom occlusal splints are designed to allow your jaws to align properly without direct tooth contact, reducing muscle pain and dental damage. This treatment can be adjusted over time, from constant use to nightly wear, providing long-term relief.
Disclusion Time Reduction Therapy focuses on reducing the friction between your upper and lower back teeth, thereby relaxing the facial muscles and reducing pain in the face and jaw joint. This innovative therapy can be a game-changer for those suffering from TMJ-related discomfort.
Dr. Morgan’s expertise in TMJ therapy, along with his commitment to personalized care, ensures that each patient receives the most effective treatment for their specific condition.
If you’re experiencing symptoms of TMD/TMJ dysfunction, jaw pain, or facial discomfort, don’t hesitate to contact us for a consultation. Our team is ready to guide you on your path to recovery and relief.
