TMJ Pain and TMD Treatment

The accompanying headaches that often come with TMD can be something of a bother, but jaw problems can also be far more severe. In the end, pain is pain. Dr. Longenecker and his caring staff near Parkton and Sparks, MD, can offer you TMJ treatment that can help you ease that pain.

You may be struggling with the easiest of tasks involving your jaw, such as eating, talking, and yawning. Is it difficult to perform simple dental health tasks of brushing and flossing? If you suffer from severe TMD, even these simple functions can cause not just pain but stress. These are functions we rely on. And it may be time to seek TMJ treatment.
