Tratamiento de la ATM o Tratamiento de la articulaci\u00f3n temporomandibular<\/em><\/h2>\r\nYour temporomandibular joint is the joint connecting the lower jaw to the skull. Also known as TMD, or Temporomandibular Disorder (or TMJ syndrome), TMJ is often used as generic “shorthand” to describe the dysfunctions of the jaw muscles. Due to its location in front of the ear and at the rear of the mouth, the proper function of the TMJ is mainly dependent on the maintenance of healthy teeth.\r\n\r\nThe lower jaw determines the function of the teeth and usually the upper jaw and teeth, which is stable and although is predominant in determining the aesthetics of your smile, it has contributory to the function of your teeth as well. The TMJ has been called the most important joint in the body because of its profound influence on other parts of the body.\r\n\r\n\"TratamientoSeg\u00fan Asociaci\u00f3n Dental Americana<\/a>, there are more than ten million Americans that suffer from clenching, Bruxism, and muscle pain, which can cause chronic headaches. clicking of the TMJ, and pain in muscles of neck, jaws, besides wearing down their teeth, and decreasing the occlusal (bite) vertical dimension (OVD). Therefore, TMJ treatment can be hugely beneficial and has the potential for a sizable quality of life improvement.\r\n\r\nTMJ pain and discomfort can be treated by Celebrity TMJ Dentist Dr. Anthony Mobasser and his team of specialists. The etiologic factors causing TMJ pain are usually due to bite, occlusion, and occlusal disease, insomnia, and lack of proper airway. If untreated, these can lead to further breakdown of the joint and facial structure. It is critical to visit an expert dentist whose goal is to keep your teeth, gums, bones, and joints healthy for your lifetime. He will perform a complete full mouth evaluation which is extremely detailed and comprehensive to find the root cause of TMD. Some causes of TMJ disorder could be due to immature interference’s of your teeth, not being balanced, and lack of canine guidance which is needed for your back teeth dis-occlusion.\r\n\r\nCommon symptoms of TMD include pain while chewing, clicking, or popping of the joint, stuffiness or itching, loss of hearing and dizziness in the ear, blurring of vision or eye pain, grinding or clenching of teeth, and pain in the facial muscles, head, and neck.\r\n\r\nTMJ Disorder can also come about as a result of the following: excessive stress; whiplash or other head, back, or neck trauma; crooked teeth or a deep overbite; the loss of teeth; poor posture; the strain of dental surgery such as poorly fitted dental crowns and dentures. Sometimes a seemingly unrelated injury (shoulder, knee, hip, etc.) can trigger the TMJ.\r\n\r\nIn our office, TMJ Treatment can heal many patients immediately. Maximal improvement of the disorder, however, is usually achieved within 4 to 6 months. For some patients, this may take longer.\r\n\r\nTMJ Treatment is tailored to the needs of the individual. A careful study is done to clearly define the nature of the problem. Thorough consultation and examination of the patient are done and a comprehensive physical examination is made to evaluate the sites of pain, by Dr. Mobasser and his staff. X-rays of the teeth and TM Joint, plaster models of the mouth, and a computer-assisted analysis of the TM Joints and muscular movements of the jaw are verified by the team. After a comprehensive analysis of the problem, a specific treatment plan is developed. Additional methods of treatment include cranial osteopathic manipulation; myofascial release; applied kinesiology; acupuncture; and electronic relaxation therapy.\r\n

\u00bfC\u00f3mo se tratan los s\u00edntomas de la ATM?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nMRI and tomograms are a necessary part in helping diagnose the cause of TMD.\r\n\r\nMost TMJ pain is due to a traumatic incident, or possibly due to missing teeth, shifted teeth, or a bad bite that is not balanced. Malocclusion is also a cause of TMJ pain and TMD.\r\n\r\nAfter the impressions and study casts, a proper bite registration is taken, and the study casts are mounted in the articulator for bite analysis. After complete bite analysis, there is the possibility of bite adjustments or occlusal adjustments by the TMD dentist, to create a more balanced bite and remove the interference from the bite. At that stage, it is possible that the TMD dentist takes an impression again and fabricates a splint to deprogram the muscles.\r\n\r\nThe orthotic appliance or the splint is a great diagnostic aid in evaluating the release of tension in muscles of mastication, and hence alleviating discomfort in the joints. It is at that time that the patient’s teeth will be evaluated, for possibly raising the bite, by restoring part of the bite, ( limited dental reconstruction) or determining if reconstrucci\u00f3n bucal completa<\/a> de la mordedura es necesario.\r\n\r\n
