Downtown Toronto's TMJ-focused dental team — delivering relief from jaw pain, headaches, and sleep apnea alongside full-service care on the PATH at Bay & Queen.
Our TMJ / TMD examination looks at how your jaw is moving to help find what's causing the discomfort and how we can help you manage it.
Common symptoms of TMJ disorder include jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds, difficulty chewing, facial pain, headaches, ear pain or tinnitus, lockjaw, and neck or shoulder pain. Our team uses advanced diagnostics — including T-Scan, JVA, and TMJ X-rays — to design a personalized treatment plan.
