End of Constant Tension
Wake Up Without the Ache
Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) affects the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, causing pain, clicking, limited jaw movement, and chronic headaches. Dr. Sands has extensive experience diagnosing and treating TMD with conservative, effective approaches.
Treatment begins with a thorough evaluation of your bite, jaw function, and symptoms. Many patients find significant relief with a custom night guard that prevents clenching and grinding (bruxism) — one of the most common causes of TMD.
For more complex cases, we may recommend bite adjustment, physical therapy referral, or other targeted therapies. Our goal is to relieve your pain and restore comfortable jaw function without invasive procedures.
