More about Neuromuscular Dentistry treatment…

The effect of TMD disorders vary from one patient to another. For the majority of patients, a Orthotic Dental Appliance or Orthodontics is enough to restore health and well-being. In some very rare cases surgery may be recommended. We would only recommend surgery as a last resort, when a patient does not respond to the traditional treatments.

TMD treatment options are based on the:

  • Patient’s age
  • Overall health condition
  • Medical history
  • Extent of the TMD disorder
  • Tolerance for any neuromuscular dentistry procedures, medications, or therapies
  • Expectations on the recovery period
  • Preference or personal opinion

Monica Crooks DDS wants nothing but to provide you with the top-of-the-line TMD treatment options. You deserve nothing but to get recover from this condition and recapture your dental health and overall wellbeing.
