Stop Those Headaches
If you get headaches and experience jaw pain when you wake in the morning, you may have tried several medical specialists to relieve your pain with little success.
In cases where this jaw pain is caused by clenching and grinding your teeth, you’ll be looking for a dentist to solve the problem. If you think you might have a problem with clenching & grinding your teeth, Dr. Smith provides a TMJ exam to help diagnose the severity of the problem for people searching for TMJ Troy Oh and TMJ Dayton Oh area.
90% of the time, he can coach you to eliminate your pain by using exercises and establishing new habits. To protect your teeth from heavy wear at night (and reduce your morning headaches!) Dr. Smith can make you a custom-fit bite splint.
