TMJ APpliance

The mandibular advancement appliance, also known as a mandibular repositioning splint or oral appliance, is a specialized device used in the treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain and related disorders. At Airway Omaha, we understand the significant impact that TMJ pain can have on your daily life, and we offer advanced solutions to help alleviate discomfort and restore optimal jaw function.

This custom-made oral appliance is designed to gently reposition the lower jaw (mandible) forward, thereby relieving pressure on the temporomandibular joint and surrounding muscles. By promoting a more favorable jaw position, the mandibular advancement appliance helps to reduce strain, inflammation, and discomfort associated with TMJ disorders.

One of the key benefits of this appliance is its ability to provide immediate relief from TMJ pain, as well as long-term therapeutic benefits. By stabilizing the jaw in a more relaxed position, it can help prevent grinding (bruxism) and clenching of the teeth, which are common contributors to TMJ dysfunction.

Additionally, the mandibular advancement appliance is custom-fitted to each patient's unique dental anatomy, ensuring optimal comfort and effectiveness. Our experienced dental team will work closely with you to assess your TMJ symptoms, determine the appropriate treatment approach, and tailor the appliance to meet your specific needs.

If you're experiencing TMJ pain or discomfort, we encourage you to schedule a consultation with us at Airway Omaha. Our compassionate team is dedicated to providing personalized care and effective solutions to help you find relief from TMJ disorders and improve your overall oral health and well-being.
