If you let your Riverside dentist know that you are experiencing lots of sounds associated with your jaw joints, then you will be met with some helpful advice. We may also suggest that you quickly begin receiving TMJ disorder treatment as a means of alleviating the symptoms (the noises and more), so you can get back to jaws that function smoothly, that aren’t so loud, and that allow you to get through the day without concern.

Your Noisy Jaw

You may wonder if those loud popping noises and the gentle clicking that your jaw makes when you eat or when you move it consistently in other ways means that you have TMJ disorder. The truth is, it may or it may not. If you’re producing sounds when you eat but you’re not experiencing any additional symptoms, you probably just have noisy jaw joints! However, if this is accompanied by pain, discomfort, swelling, stiffness, headaches, or other symptoms, it may point to a need for treatment. How to find out for sure? Call your Riverside dentist, of course!

Your Noisy Ears

If you suffer from TMJ disorder, you may experience issues with your ears, such as hearing noises that are not actually there. So, if you’ve noticed that you’ve got an uncomfortable jaw, a noisy jaw, and a ringing in your ears (or a buzzing; both are known as tinnitus), then this is worth bringing to the attention of your Riverside dentist. We can assist with relieving your symptoms with the help of TMJ treatment.
