Live Without Pain
At the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Temecula and Hemet, our #1 priority is the health and well-being of our patients. That’s why we offer a wide range of services, from treatment for TMJ disorders to oral appliance therapy for sleep apnea. Our team takes a personalized approach to each patient’s care, working closely with them to develop a unique treatment plan that addresses their specific needs. We believe that every individual deserves to live a happy and healthy life – and it is our goal to help them achieve just that.
Sleep Naturally, Breathe Freely
We prioritize alternative treatments to CPAP machines for conditions like sleep apnea. We mainly utilize oral appliance therapy, which involves custom-fitted dental devices designed to keep the airway open during sleep. This approach offers a more comfortable and less invasive option for patients, especially those who find CPAP machines cumbersome or intolerable. This tailored method aligns with our commitment to providing patient-specific, effective solutions for sleep-related disorders without relying on CPAP technology.
About Us
The Origin of your Pain can be Key to its Treatment!
At the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Temecula and Hemet, our comprehensive evaluations use the latest technologies to properly diagnose your condition. Through an examination in which we evaluate structural injuries and systemic inflammatory conditions, you can determine what has caused pain or sleep dysfunction. In this way, appropriate treatments are directed towards restoring function while also relieving symptoms with long term stability through both a structural approach as well as functional ones!
There is a strong relationship between temporomandibular joint dysfunction, headaches, sleep, and breathing. All must be evaluated and addressed in order to achieve the maximum therapeutic result. The right diagnosis is essential for its success!
Our Services
Chronic Pain
This condition occurs when the joints connecting the lower jaw to the skull become misaligned or inflamed, causing a range of symptoms such as difficulty chewing, headaches, and even earaches.
Jaw Clenching
It’s not uncommon to clench or grind your teeth occasionally, especially when feeling stressed or anxious. However, when this behavior becomes chronic and affects the TMJ, it can cause discomfort and even lead to serious damage.
Laser Therapy
Traditional treatments for TMJ include medication and physical therapy, but our dental experts now offer advanced laser technology, which uses targeted light energy to stimulate certain cells in the mouth and promote healing of inflamed tissues.
Migraine Relief
Many people suffer from chronic migraines, often experiencing daily headaches that can significantly impact their quality of life. While there are numerous treatment options, one increasingly popular option is TMJ therapy.
Orthopedic Dysfunction
Symptoms may include difficulties chewing or aching sensations in the face and neck. TMJ disfunction can be caused by habits such as teeth grinding or misalignment of the bite, but it can also stem from arthritis or even psychological stress.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
With a weak airway and sleep apnea, the jaw moves around constantly while you sleep. This stretches and injures the jaw joint. Treatment for sleep apnea uses oral appliances to stabilize the jaw and support the airway while avoiding a CPAP machine.
Teeth Grinding
Also known as bruxism, teeth grinding can cause discomfort in the jaw and lead to worn down enamel on the teeth. One common cause of bruxism is temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction.
Snoring
Often when we think of snoring, we imagine someone lying on their back with their mouth open. But for those suffering from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, snoring can be a frustrating and painful issue.
Popping
Popping refers to a condition where your jaw makes a clicking or popping sound when you open or close your mouth. This condition can be uncomfortable and even painful, making it difficult to eat, speak or yawn.
Jaw Noises
Jaw noises can occur for many reasons. Some factors that can contribute to jaw noises include teeth grinding, arthritis, or injury to the jaw. Although not always a cause for concern, they can be a sign of an underlying issue.
Ear Pain
The TMJ connects the jawbone to the skull and is essential in opening and closing the mouth for speaking and chewing. If this joint is inflamed or injured, it can lead to persistent ear pain and even hearing loss.
Locking
Jaw locking can be a frustrating and uncomfortable symptom for anyone experiencing it. The condition occurs when the jaw joints are unable to perform their normal movements, resulting in the jaw getting stuck in an open or closed position.
