If you’re experiencing an aching jaw or have difficulty opening and closing your mouth, you may have a condition called TMJ disorder. The temporomandibular joints (TMJs) are the joints that connect your jawbone to your skull. When they’re not working properly, it can cause discomfort and make it hard to open and close your mouth. One effective treatment we use is therapy with a custom TMJ appliance.
A custom-made oral appliance, such as a splint or mouthguard, lessens TMJ symptoms. Your appliance will be designed to fit comfortably in your mouth and help correct the alignment of your jaw. This type of therapy offers several benefits in treating TMD:

Taylor Dentistry is simply the best. I have been going to Dr. Taylor for years and I guess I’m just going to have to get dentures when she retires because I’m not going to anyone else.
Highly recommend. The entire staff is professional, patient and kind. I have a lot of anxiety about the dentist and they always treat me with kindness. At a recent visit for a semi-emergency, they took me in immediately. After they assessed me, they clearly explained the situation, and then they recommended that I would be best helped by an oral surgeon. And then – this was so helpful— they immediately called the oral surgeon’s office, and got me right in there, and I was treated within an hour. They also handle claims with my insurer well. Five stars.
Great!
Always a Great Experience.
I have never been treated so well! Dr. Taylor is so gentle and kind and all the other staff are just as concerned and kind to their patients. A million gold stars would not be enough.
I recently had a crown put on. The dentist was Dr. Taylor. Oddly after the competent clinician did the preliminary she contacted Dr. Taylor, but she did not get a reply. She left the room to get the dentist. She was gone for some time. When she returned another dentist I have never meant continued with setting the crown. No introduction or explanation why she was replacing Dr. Taylor! I appreciate the explanation for what happened! The dentists and staff are all extremely knowledgeable and skilled. They show thoughtful care and work so well as a team!

Dr.Taylor was very thorough in my examination and explained my dental issues, allowing time for questions and answers. Her “chair side” manner is gentle, kind and caring. Her staff is friendly. Dr. Taylor’s assistant Audrey was also very professional and explained everything that she was doing before she did it. Tracy at the front desk was very informative and helpful in addressing my questions and concerns about insurance and billing. She promptly emailed my X-rays and photos the same day of the appointment. Overall I was very pleased with the care that I received at Taylor Dentistry.
Just had another positive encounter with Cathy and her brilliant staff at Cathy Taylor Dentistry! SO great to be well-cared for by competent and personable folks. This is what GREAT healthcare looks like- thanks!❤😁 This kind of care is SO hard to find- at ANY price, and I’m so glad she’s my dentist! ♥️☺️

TMJ problems typically won’t go away without treatment. TMJ pain is usually caused when the joints in your jaw become inflamed. This commonly occurs because of two habits that put your jaw under pressure: clenching and teeth grinding. We can make a custom mouthguard for you that will stop these behaviors so that your jaw can heal.
There is no standard length for TMJ treatment. It depends on many factors, including the severity of your symptoms. Since a mouthguard not only relieves TMJ pain but also prevents damage to teeth caused by grinding, many patients make it a permanent addition to their bedtime routine.
TMJ treatment may be covered by your regular health insurance. We recommend you check with your insurance carrier for specifics on your coverage. If you don’t have coverage for your treatment, we offer several payment options, including third-party financing. We’ll work with you to get the TMJ treatment you need.
We Can’t Wait to See Your Smile!
