Take Control of Your TMJ Symptoms for Lasting Relief
A TMJ disorder can happen as a result of teeth grinding, a jaw injury, arthritis, or tooth misalignments. You may experience a variety of symptoms including jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds, headaches, and tooth sensitivity from teeth grinding. If you bring up this issue during your checkup, or are concerned enough to make an appointment, your dentist will begin with a thorough exam. Our team will take digital X-rays to get to the root of the problem and make the diagnosis that is ideal for your needs.
Your treatment may include:
- Bite Guards – Using digital scanners, our team will capture impressions of your teeth. The impressions are used to create a custom-made bite guard for you. This oral appliance will add a cushion between your teeth, which can help alleviate TMJ symptoms. It also stops damage from teeth grinding or clenching.
- Botox – Botox injections can relax the muscles responsible for jaw tension and pain. They will need to be repeated regularly for the best results. You can incorporate the treatments into your regular checkups.
- Orthodontics – Orthodontics can straighten misaligned teeth and help alleviate TMJ symptoms. By correcting bite alignment, you’ll reduce jaw strain and enjoy improved oral function.
Call 503-446-6919 for TMJ treatment in Tigard. You can also schedule online.

My dental experience here was top Notch. Friendly staff, amazing comfort and each member communicated with me. Dr Hayden took time to discuss my dental health and asked me directly my needs. My past experiences have been very traumatic and I have high anxiety towards any dental experience. I will be returning for sure & we are switching the entire family for all services. Thank you very much for excellent service and care.

Common Questions About TMJ Treatment / Teeth Grinding
Does TMJ treatment work?+–
Many patients have regained the ability to engage in daily activities such as talking, eating, and laughing pain-free thanks to TMJ treatment. The cornerstone of effective TMJ therapy lies in identifying the treatment approach that suits you best. Our range of options includes custom mouthguards, orthodontic procedures, and Botox® injections. Together, we’ll assess and select the most suitable method for your needs.
How long does TMJ treatment take?+–
The duration of your TMJ treatment varies based on the specific method needed. For instance, Botox® treatment typically takes just 10 to 20 minutes to administer and proves effective for certain patients. Others may find relief by wearing a bite guard during sleep to alleviate TMJ discomfort. Treatment with Invisalign clear aligners, often spanning 12 to 18 months, might be the preferred option for some individuals.
Is TMJ causing my headaches? +–
Determining whether TMJ is the cause of your headaches requires a comprehensive exam by your dentist at Hayden Dental Care. TMJ-related inflammation can lead to discomfort in the surrounding head and neck muscles, which may mimic headache symptoms. During your appointment, your dentist can help identify the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatment options to relieve your TMJ symptoms, including headaches.
