Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) affect the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, causing pain and dysfunction. Dr. Barkin provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment for TMD and related facial pain conditions.
With his expertise in oral and maxillofacial surgery, Dr. Barkin can diagnose the underlying cause of your pain and recommend the most effective treatment approach.
TMD can manifest in many ways. If you experience any of these symptoms, a consultation can help identify the cause.
Understanding the cause of your TMD is essential for effective treatment.
Chronic clenching or grinding puts excessive stress on the jaw joint.
Trauma to the jaw or temporomandibular joint can cause lasting damage.
Degenerative joint disease can affect the TMJ like other joints.
The soft disc between the joint can slip out of proper alignment.
Tension can lead to jaw muscle tightening and clenching.
Poor bite alignment can strain the jaw joint over time.
Dr. Barkin takes a comprehensive approach, starting with conservative treatments and progressing to advanced options when needed.
Don't let TMD control your life. Schedule a consultation to discuss your symptoms and treatment options.
