How Our TMJ Specialists Can Help?
The TMJ specialists at our TMJ and Sleep Therapy Centre of Raleigh-Durham are dedicated to evaluating the root cause of your pain. No matter what symptoms you’re experiencing or how minor or severe they are, we’re focused on determining the primary reason behind the craniofacial pain or discomfort.
Given how craniofacial pain can be both complex and unique in that it may manifest differently in different patients, finding the root cause is essential to design the best possible course of treatment. Be it symptoms such as, headaches, tension or cluster or other conditions like musculoskeletal pain, facial neuralgia, our TMJ specialists at North Carolina can identify the primary cause or condition that is causing it, with their substantial expertise and years of experience.
TMJ pains and dysfunctions are often caused by TMJ - a condition that is characterized by disturbances in the action of the jaw - which may be related to a complex problem or more likely a combination of factors. These factors widely range from traumas caused by accidents or injuries to the head or facial area to inadequate oxygen supply and grinding of the teeth.
