TMJ refers to the temporomandibular joints, those small joints that hold the jaw to the skull. The jaw joint surrounding muscles and the fit of your teeth are closely interrelated and each affects the other as you make everyday jaw movements like speaking and chewing. When your teeth are not in proper relation to each other and to your jaw joints, the jaw automatically shifts to a new position, attempting to compensate for the misalignment of your teeth. A misaligned TMJ can affect blood vessels, nerves and muscles, causing severe headache or ear pain. Dr. Roberts understands the causes of TMJ and how best to treat this painful condition. Using the latest technology and dental techniques, Dr. Roberts effectively treats the cause of this disorder to relieve patients of their symptoms.
