TMJ Dentist Los Angeles

The Center for Cosmetic, Implant, and TMJ Dentistry is the place to  turn to for all your neuromuscular dentistry needs.

Commons conditions, such as headaches, migraines, and TMJ affect more Americans than most people are aware. According to the American Dental Association, 10.8 million Americans suffer from TMJ (temporomandibular joint syndrome or disorder). This condition is characterized by a clicking and popping of the jaw, caused by an improperly aligned jaw. What most people do not realize, however, is that TMJ can significantly contribute to other common problems, such as headaches, migraines, stiff neck, vertigo, and tingling of the fingertips, just to name a few. Dr. Sid Solomon’s leading center for  Neuromuscular Dentistry in Los Angeles offers top-of-line technology and the most successful techniques for treating TMJ, all at affordable prices.  Given our world-class customer service and incredibly friendly and helpful dental staff, there is no reason to turn anywhere else. We offer consultations, exams, x-rays, diagnostic models of your teeth and bite registration, as well as corrective procedures. Most importantly, our corrective actions and procedures are non-surgical, non-invasive, long-lasting, and offer fast recovery and improved overall health results. Whether you have previously been diagnosed with a known neuromuscular dentistry condition, or if you would just like a consultation to discuss some pain or discomfort you are feeling, which you think may be related to TMJ or another jaw-related condition, give Neuromuscular Dentistry a call today. We would be happy to set up an appointment for evaluation and to discuss your options. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you on your way to a healthier and pain-free life.

What is Neuromuscular Dentistry?

Neuromuscular dentistry is the science of placing the jaw into its optimal position, relieving the symptoms associated with TMJ. While traditional dentistry evaluates primarily the teeth, bones, and gums, neuromuscular dentistry works with the hard tissues and the soft tissues, muscles and nerves. Dr. Solomon understands the complex relationship between hard and soft facial tissues and works to make that relationship a harmonious one.

When the jaw is misaligned, both the hard and soft tissues are affected and many physiological problems can result, such as headaches, jaw pain, neck and shoulder pain, tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, and clicking or popping sounds in the jaw joint. In a number of cases, these symptoms are the result of TMJ (temporomandibular joint syndrome), also referred to as TMD (temporomandibular joint disorder).  At the Center for Cosmetic, Implant, and Neuromuscular Dentistry, Dr. Solomon has dedicated his practice to diagnosing these symptoms and alleviating the pain and discomfort they cause.
