The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects the jawbone to the skull. TMJ disorders often cause discomfort in the cheek, jaw, or ear areas and can affect normal jaw function.
In less severe cases TMJ disorders can be treated with self-managed care (eating soft foods, using ice packs, avoiding extreme jaw movement) or nonsurgical treatments (anti-inflammatory medications, Botox injections, or stabilization splints). In more severe cases, surgical treatments (jaw joint replacements) may be necessary.
TMJ conditions fall into three main categories:
- Myofacial pain – discomfort or pain in the muscles that control jaw function (grinding teeth can result in this type of TMJ disorder)
- Internal derangement of the joint – a possible indicator of a displaced disc, dislocated jaw, or injury to the condyle
- Arthritis – a degenerative inflammatory disorder
Signs and symptoms of TMJ disorders are frequently intensified by stress and can include:

Should be 10 stars without a doubt. It's taken me sometime to figure out how to write a review for such an amazing place and I'm not sure I'll do it justice still.
From the owner to her staff everyone I had the pleasure of interacting with was nothing short of perfection. They all were so friendly and understanding. I had some major work done throughout a few appointments and to be honest when I was living in FL I had the perfect dentist so of course I was nervous about someone new but wow from the moment I walked through the door I knew I found perfection twice.
Anyone looking for services they offer should immediately look no further. Trust me you won't regret it. I did want to grab some photos but I'll have to grab them next time I'm there.
I may update this review if I can find a better way to word things im trying to say.

I had not been to the dentist in over 10 yrs so I was uneasy about my visit. The team at Advanced Family Dentistry put me at ease. I met Angela who was assigned my case. It could not have been better! Angela was professional and went above and beyond in how she explained everything she was doing. I could not have asked for a better person to take care of me. I am so glad my daughter pushed me to go. My teeth feel great!

Dr Bhat, Jessie and her entire staff were fantastic. They were all welcoming, very friendly and informative. After my dental office closed another search was on and since dental check ups haven't been my favorite I'm thankful I came across Advanced Family Dentistry. I highly recommend this practice.😁

My wife and I both are quite happy with Dr Bhat satisfying all of our dental needs. I have never had so much confidence that my treatment will always be exactly right. We can confidently refer anyone to Advanced Family Dentistry. All of the staff are always cheery and make the whole experience a pleasure.
