Temporomandibular Joint Treatment Greenford
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects your jawbone to your skull and plays a crucial role in everyday activities like talking, chewing, and yawning. When this joint or the surrounding muscles become strained or damaged, it can lead to discomfort or pain, commonly known as TMJ disorder.
At Artistry Dental in Greenford, we provide comprehensive TMJ treatments tailored to your specific needs, helping you regain comfort and jaw function.
