Quality TMJ Treatment in San Diego

Do you hear clicking sounds in your jaw whenever you chew? If so, you may be suffering from Temporomandibular Joint Disorder - TMJ for short. Not only is it annoying, left untreated, it can be very painful. In simplest terms, TMJ symptoms can be described as chronic inflammation of the Temporomandibular joint. This joint connects the lower jaw to the skull. Dr. Mark Barraza in San Diego has diagnosed and treated many such cases. If you suffer from any pain or discomfort in your jaw, your next call should be to Mark A Barraza DDS.

Treatment of TMJ syndrome and symptoms may include restoration of certain teeth that may be contributing to jaw pain. Dr. Mark Barraza in San Diego will want to speak with you about your symptoms and your jaw habits to identify the underlying causes of your TMJ symptoms. It's often possible to get relief with simple changes in your eating and sleeping habits. However, surgery may be required for more advanced cases of TMJ disorder.
