Understanding TMJ

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jawbone to your skull, allowing you to speak, chew, and move your jaw with ease. Dysfunction in this joint—commonly referred to as TMJ disorder—can result in pain, stiffness, and other complications that impact daily life. Causes of TMJ disorders include misaligned teeth, stress, arthritis, or injury, and symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe pain and restricted movement.

At Rejuvenation Dentistry, we address TMJ disorders with a holistic, biologic approach that identifies the root causes of your symptoms. Our team focuses on restoring balance to your jaw and its surrounding structures, providing long-term relief while protecting your overall wellness.

What Is Airway Dentistry?

Airway dentistry is a specialized field that focuses on identifying and addressing structural and functional issues in the oral cavity and jaw that affect breathing. It encompasses diagnostic tools, therapeutic interventions, and sometimes corrective treatments to improve airflow, reduce sleep disturbances, and prevent long-term health issues.

At Rejuvenation Dentistry, airway dentistry often begins with comprehensive assessments, including imaging, sleep studies, and examinations to uncover the root causes of breathing challenges, such as sleep apnea or airway obstruction. Treatments may involve non-invasive methods like custom oral appliances that adjust the jaw or tongue position to promote proper airflow.

In more complex cases, it can include orthodontic adjustments or collaboration with medical specialists for multidisciplinary care. Airway dentistry bridges oral health with systemic wellness, ensuring that optimal breathing supports better sleep, cognitive function, and overall vitality.
