Belle Meade Family Dentistry Treat Bruxism and TMJ Disorder in Nashville, TN
Belle Meade Family Dentistry Treat Bruxism and TMJ Disorder in Nashville, TN

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Belle Meade Family Dentistry helps patients ease jaw pain caused by temporomandibular joint disorder, or TMJ disorder, in Nashville, TN by offering customized treatment solutions. Jaw pain and related discomfort of the mouth or face is often caused by bruxism (teeth grinding) or TMJ disorder. The experienced dentists at Belle Meade Family Dentistry offer patients suffering from these conditions night guards to prevent bruxism and dental work to adjust malocclusion for TMJ disorder.

The most common causes of jaw pain typically stem from TMJ disorder or bruxism. When the muscle that connects the jaw to the skull becomes damaged, overworked or inflamed, stiffness and soreness often develop. This muscle and area of the face is the temporomandibular joint and is responsible for the jaw function. Patients with TMJ disorder can experience sharp pain, soreness of the jaw and even lockjaw, which can severely impact their lifestyle. Bruxism is when teeth grind together during stress or while patients sleep. Over time, this grinding can cause teeth to chip, crack and become worn down, as well as lead to soreness of the face.

The doctors work closely with the patient to create a unique night guard that is designed specifically for each patient’s mouth to improve comfort while being worn.

At Belle Meade Family Dentistry, Drs. James Pace Sr., Temp Sullivan and James Pace Jr. offer leading treatment solutions for those with TMJ disorder and bruxism. One of the most common and minimally invasive solutions for TMJ disorder and bruxism is a custom fit night guard. Night guards are worn at night while the patient sleeps and cover the teeth. When grinding or clenching occurs, the night guard protects the teeth from damage. The doctors work closely with the patient to create a unique night guard that is designed specifically for each patient's mouth to improve comfort while being worn. With the night guard, patients often experience an alleviation of their bruxism or TMJ disorder symptoms.

For patients that experience severe jaw pain that is unrelated to bruxism, jaw alignment treatments are available to prevent malocclusion, or a misaligned bite. With specialized dental work, Drs. Pace, Sullivan and Pace can realign the jaw to improve the bite and relieve pressure on the jaw joints. When teeth come together properly, the jaw has less adjustments to make. In some cases, this treatment involves gently filing down teeth that connect at improper positions, while other cases may require orthodontics to realign the bite to proper position. Depending on a patient's condition, the practice offers Invisalign® and traditional braces for tooth alignment.

Patients who suffer from jaw pain or who have been diagnosed with TMJ disorder or bruxism in Nashville, TN are encouraged to contact Belle Meade Family Dentistry to treat their symptoms. Appointments can be made by visiting http://www.bellemeadedental.com or calling 615-298-2030.
