Jaw pain that flares when you chew, clicking when you open, headaches that start at the temples, or waking up with a tight jaw all point at the temporomandibular joint and the muscles around it. Grinding at night is often part of the picture, and most people doing it have no idea until the wear shows up on their teeth.
At Bluewater Dental, our Juno Beach team examines the joint, the muscles, and the wear pattern on your teeth to work out what is driving the pain. Treatment often starts with a custom night guard, and where grinding has already flattened or cracked teeth we restore them with crowns.
Dr. Blake Willoughby leads our Juno Beach practice on Donald Ross Road, where we look at the joint, the muscles, and the wear together rather than treating one in isolation.
