Do you have chronic jaw pain or headaches, particularly in the morning? You may have a disorder involving the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) or a condition where you grind or clench your teeth while you sleep (bruxism). Depending on your situation, we can offer relief using various treatments, including a nightguard that prevents bruxism and relaxes the jaw muscles. We also can administer Botox injections near the TMJ to alleviate your pain for months at a time.
Snoring may actually be an indicator of a more serious condition known as sleep apnea, which can lead to daytime exhaustion, problems with memory and concentration, and an increased risk of strokes and high blood pressure. Thankfully, Dr. Oyler can provide a solution with customized oral appliance therapy.
