Beyond Just a Nightguard
How We Approach TMJ Differently
TMJ disorders are complex — involving the jaw joint, surrounding muscles, your bite, and often stress and sleep. A one-size-fits-all drugstore nightguard rarely helps and can actually worsen symptoms.
Our approach starts with a comprehensive assessment: bite analysis, joint imaging, muscle palpation and lifestyle review. Treatment is tailored: custom-fit nightguards, bite adjustment, jaw exercises, and referral to specialists when needed.
- Comprehensive joint & bite assessment
- Custom-fit lab-made nightguard
- Bite adjustment when needed
- Coordinated with physio when beneficial
Why It Matters
The Real Benefits Patients Notice
Save Your Teeth
Grinding wears teeth down rapidly. A custom guard protects them — saving thousands in future restorative work.
Better Sleep
Reduced jaw clenching at night means deeper, more restorative sleep.
Long-Term Joint Health
Untreated TMJ can permanently damage the jaw joint. Early treatment prevents this.

Is This Right For You?

- Wake up with jaw pain or headaches
- Clicking or popping when you open your mouth

- Neck or shoulder tension that won't resolve
- Partner reports grinding sounds at night
- Jaw locks open or shut occasionally
Frequently Asked
Common Questions About TMJ Therapy
Rarely — and sometimes it makes things worse. Drugstore guards are too thick and don't accommodate your specific bite, which can throw the joint further out of balance. Custom-fit is the only way to do this properly.
Most patients notice significant headache and jaw-pain reduction within 2–4 weeks of nightly guard use. Some cases (especially long-standing) take 2–3 months.
Custom nightguards are typically covered at 50–80% as a medical/dental device. We pre-determine before fabrication.
Most patients yes — grinding is usually a long-term pattern. The guard is comfortable enough that it becomes a normal part of bedtime.
Some cases need additional intervention — physiotherapy, Botox for muscle tension, or referral to a TMJ specialist. We coordinate the entire team if needed.
