Is It Time to See a Dentist About Your TMJ Symptoms?

If you’ve been dealing with facial pain and swelling or wondering about the clicking sound you hear when you open and close your mouth, you might have a condition known as TMJ. This acronym refers to the temporomandibular joints that are part of your jaw and located on either side of your face. Without them, you wouldn’t be able to eat, talk, sing, or yawn. But when they don’t work properly, they can cause a lot of problems, including:


• Head, face, jaw, or neck pain
• Soreness around your ears and possibly tinnitus and dizziness
• Difficulty opening and closing your mouth

What’s more, postponing TMJ treatment can lead to additional problems, such as sleep disorders and chronic headaches.

If you’ve been experiencing TMJ symptoms and you’d like to get an expert diagnosis and treatment from an experienced TMJ dentist in the Oswego, Illinois, area, turn to Lakota Dental.
