TMD

TMD

Your temporomandibular joint (TMD) connects your jaw to your skull, allowing you to open and close your mouth with ease. When this joint becomes injured or strained, it can lead to temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD), causing pain, stiffness, or even clicking sounds when you move your jaw.

At Hayes Barton Dentistry, Dr. Charlotte Hunt specializes in diagnosing and treating TMD using advanced technology and a personalized approach. If you’re experiencing jaw pain or discomfort, schedule a consultation to explore effective TMD therapy options designed to restore your comfort and jaw function.

What to expect

To diagnose TMD at Hayes Barton Dentistry, Dr. Charlotte Hunt will start by listening to your concerns and thoroughly examining your jaw and teeth. During this evaluation, Dr. Hunt will assess the movement of your jaw and look for signs of inflammation, misalignment, teeth grinding, or jaw clenching.
