Temporomandibular Joint Disorder

Temporomandibular Joint Disorders


TMJ

At Lorenzana & Dental Associates we are dedicated to providing our patients health and good, long-lasting functionality. One of the tools we use for this purpose is full-occlusal analysis. Using specialized equipment,we collect data on tooth contact,which will be extremely useful in the further course of dental treatment. For years, dental occlusal analysis was only implied by dentists. The ability to measure the patient's bite force is critical when it comes to oral health assessment and prosthetic and orthodontic treatment efficacy. An unbalanced bite can cause excessive force, leading to bone loss and rapid wear dentures.
If a bite is not corrected a person can develop:
  • Periodontal problems
  • Broken or cracked teeth
  • Temporomandibular joint problems
  • Difficulty chewing
