The intensity of your discomfort, and the severity of your pain, and the causes, will determine the appropriate treatment you should receive. Different methods are available and it could take some time to locate the best solution for you. The dentist at your visit can help you with restorative therapy or you might require an orthodontist or prosthodontist for more complex bite problems. If you suffer from a severe TMJ issue, you might require an oral advancement or splint device to stop you from grinding or clenching your teeth.
