Mouthguards for TMJ
If you grind your teeth (bruxism) while you sleep, this could cause headaches, uneven wear to the teeth, and even TMJ disorder. Dr. Crowe offers custom-made night guards to prevent grinding and preserve her patients' healthy, even smiles!
Temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) is a condition that affects the temporomandibular joint that connects your lower jaw to your skull. While dentists have difficulty finding the real cause of this particular disorder, experts suggest that the problem is caused by muscle and joint problems. TMJ can also arise from trauma the jaw receives, such as a heavy blow. Patients who constantly grind their teeth are at risk of developing a temporomandibular joint disorder. Other causes of this condition include misalignment of the jaw and infection.
Shooting pain in the jaw area is a common sign of TMJ. For some patients, the discomfort is not localized to the jaw area; it can also radiate to the neck, ears, and shoulders. Additional TMJ symptoms include popping sounds when opening or closing the mouth, lockjaw, swelling, inflammation and difficulty opening the mouth wide. If you experience any of the symptoms of TMJ or bruxism, contact Dr. Crowe and her team for relief!
Mouthguards For Athletics
For athletes of all ages, it's important to keep your smile protected while you're playing sports. Custom-crafted athletic mouthguards at Corrie J Crowe, DDS protect the teeth and jaw, and can even protect against concussions.
Desensitizing Treatments for Sensitive Teeth
If you are sensitive to hot and cold and avoid certain foods or drinks, our team has a solution for you! After determining the cause of your symptoms, Dr. Crowe can apply a special paste designed to relieve sensitivity for months.
The paste is applied on the surface of the teeth, where it forms a strong bond with the enamel (the hard outer layer) of your teeth. It can last anywhere from 2-6 months, depending on how often you brush your teeth and how well you care for them. Dr. Crowe will then provide tips to help keep the sensitivity at bay between regular appointments.
