TMD Treatment
Understanding TMD (Temporomandibular Disorder)
  • Multifactorial Causes: TMD has various causes, and malocclusion (misalignment of teeth) can play a significant role.
 
  • Research Findings: Studies on whether occlusal abnormalities (bite issues) are linked to TMD have shown mixed results.
 
  • Other Contributing Factors: Trauma, stress, and habits like teeth grinding (parafunction) also contribute to TMD. How a patient adapts to these factors is crucial in the onset of TMD.
 
  • Holistic Approach Needed: Treating TMD effectively requires addressing multiple factors, not just dental alignment.
 
  • Role of Clear Aligners: Correcting malocclusion with clear aligners can provide fast and effective relief from some TMD symptoms by improving bite conditions and repositioning the jaw.

  • Comprehensive Care: We treat patients with mild to complex malocclusions that may require a combination of orthodontic, prosthodontic, restorative, or periodontal interventions.

  • Support for Dental Implants: Clear aligners help in precise tooth movements to support dental implants and site development.

  • Prosthetic Rehabilitation: Aligners redistribute teeth to create a better foundation for prosthetic dental work.

  • Periodontal Health: Aligners help in repositioning teeth to support the restoration of gum health.

 

Children and Young Adults
  • Minimally Invasive Treatments: Our aligner treatments are suitable for simple and complex malocclusions, providing predictable and precise tooth adjustments.

  • Functional Occlusion: Aim to achieve excellent bite and functional occlusion.

  • Growth Modification: For younger patients with uneven skeletal growth, we use aligners similar to Twin Blocks functional appliances to redirect jaw growth.

  • Orthodontic Elastics: Incorporating intra-oral elastics with aligners helps achieve both skeletal and dental improvements.
