About this video

Welcome to Avanti Dentistry! TMJ is an acronym that stands for the temporomandibular joint. This is the joint which connects our jawbone to our skull. When your TMJ becomes misaligned and you are chewing improperly, this can cause headaches and a variety of other issues. Many people associate TMJ dysfunction with clicking and popping of your jaw, which can indicate an issue. Your dentist can make sure that your bite is properly aligned and by doing so correct many problems that you may not have been aware were related to it. If you have questions about TMJ therapy or wonder if you might be struggling with TMJ dysfunction, give us a call today:
