TMJ stands for temporal-mandibular joint — where the skull and lower jaw meet. Problems in this joint can be caused by misalignment of the teeth, trauma, or excess muscle tension. At 3V Dental, we offer a range of gentle, non-surgical TMJ treatments designed to relieve pain, restore function, and improve your quality of life.

We've reimagined every detail of your dental experience.
An exam that's designed to prevent problems, instead of just solving them.
3V Dental is consistently rated as one of the top dental practices in Port Washington and Massapequa. Our team combines advanced technology with a warm, patient-first approach so every visit feels effortless.
Targeted treatments address the root cause of jaw pain and tension, providing lasting relief.
TMJ treatment prevents the tooth wear and damage caused by chronic grinding and clenching.
Many patients find that treating TMJ significantly reduces the frequency and severity of their headaches.
We start with the most conservative approaches — night guards, Botox, and lifestyle guidance — before considering anything more involved.

Your Visit
We evaluate your bite, jaw function, and symptoms to identify the root cause of your TMJ issues.
A personalized plan is created based on your specific symptoms, severity, and lifestyle.
We begin with the most conservative effective approach — typically a custom night guard and/or Botox injections.
We monitor your progress and adjust treatment as needed until you experience lasting relief.
Common TMJ symptoms include headaches, earaches, trouble or soreness when opening and closing the mouth, clicking or popping of the jaw, pain in the jaw muscles, and soreness in the area, sometimes extending to the face.
One of the most common is teeth grinding, pain and tenderness in the jaw, earache, aching in the face, difficulty chewing, and locking of the jaw. You should see a dentist if you have persistent clicking or popping, pain that interferes with eating or speaking, or a jaw that locks open or closed.
Treatment options range from conservative to more involved, depending on severity. We typically begin with the most conservative approaches: custom night guards to prevent grinding, physical therapy-style exercises, and anti-inflammatory recommendations.
For patients who don’t respond to conservative treatment, Botox injections into the jaw muscles can provide significant relief by relaxing the overactive muscles responsible for pain and grinding. The American Dental Association recommends proper diagnosis before any surgical intervention.
