TMJ treatment
You grind your teeth? We can help.
Teeth grinding or a cracking jaw joint, a tense neck, sensitive teeth and earaches are signs of a disturbed interaction of your teeth, jaw and muscles.
We treat these complaints, known as craniomandibular dysfunction (CMD), by means of a comprehensive analysis and a holistic therapy approach that includes your entire body and your everyday habits. In other words: We do everything we can to put an end to your teeth grinding.
TMJ treatment -

Anything that deviates from the normal clenching of teeth can be the trigger for teeth grinding and clenching. These include tooth migration and tilting of the teeth after tooth loss, fillings and dentures that are too high or incorrectly designed, irregular tooth position after orthodontic treatment and hereditary developmental disorders of the jaw. Stress and mental strain are also a widespread cause.
