Jaw pain, headaches and a stiff neck

Your temporomandibular joint connects your jaw to your skull. When it’s strained, the pain can show up in surprising places: earaches, headaches, a sore neck and shoulders, clicking or popping, even dizziness. Clenching and grinding at night make it worse, and they can wear down your teeth.

Dr. Love has trained with Dr. Steven Olmos of TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre International, the Dawson Academy and the Kois Center, all known for their work on the jaw joint, the bite and the airway. She evaluates your jaw at every consultation. Read about TMJ treatment.

Treatment options

  • A custom bite splint made to hold your jaw in a relaxed resting position, worn during the day or at night.
  • Botox for TMJ to relax the jaw muscles and ease tension. The treatment takes minutes, and results can last up to six months.
  • An oral appliance if a narrowed airway is part of the picture. It can ease TMJ symptoms while it keeps your airway open.
