Long Term Treatments TMJ

LONG-TERM TREATMENT DECISIONS

We understand that each patient has unique needs and we believe that each patient should  be treated uniquely relative to those needs for long-term maintenance of a therapeutic occlusion. Some patients can resume satisfactory function in their pre-treatment occlusal position with the improved mandibular and muscle function achieved by initial therapy. However, the majority of our patients require some form of long-term TMJ treatment in order to maintain the therapeutic occlusal position.

LONG-TERM TREATMENT OPTIONS

As a comprehensive center that provides dentistry and specialty services from every discipline of dentistry, we have unique capabilities so that one, or a combination of treatments can be considered on a case-by-case basis: restorative dentistry, implant dentistry, orthodontics, oral surgical procedures (TMJ or orthognathic), multidisciplinary dentistry, full mouth restorations, full mouth rehabilitations, full mouth reconstructions, or the ongoing use of a removable orthodic made of durable materials.
