Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMJ)

When your jaw hurts, your life stops.
At Nuve Dental, we treat TMJ at the root cause, not with quick fixes. If you experience stiffness, clicking, or pain when opening your mouth, Dr. Eduardo Guzmán — along with his team of specialists — looks at not only your jaw joint, but also everything that influences it: your bite, habits, stress history, or injuries.
Here, we don’t work with assumptions. We study your case using clinical and digital tools, and create a realistic plan: from custom night guards to adjustments that relieve pressure and improve your jaw’s movement.
Because a poorly functioning joint can limit your life. At Nuve, we work to restore your comfort while eating, sleeping, and smiling.

TMJ Q&A

This is a condition affecting the joint that connects your jaw to your skull. When this area doesn’t function properly, you may experience pain, stiffness, clicking, or even find that your jaw locks when opening or closing your mouth.

What can cause this problem?
There’s rarely a single cause, but it can be due to:

  • Teeth grinding (often unconsciously)

  • Stress or muscle tension

  • Jaw injuries or blows

  • Arthritis or other joint issues

  • Misaligned teeth or bite
    At Nuve, we don’t guess — we analyze your case from every angle before treating it.

Dr. Eduardo Guzmán performs a detailed examination of your jaw and how you bite, asks about your habits and discomforts, and if necessary, takes images to see how your joint moves.
From there, we design a specific plan just for you.

At Nuve, we treat TMJ with concrete actions that relieve pain and improve jaw movement. Depending on your case, we may recommend:

  • Daily habit changes (like avoiding clenching or biting things)

  • Simple exercises and physical recommendations to relax the area

  • Custom night guards if you grind your teeth at night

  • Clear aligners if the problem comes from a misaligned bite

  • Therapeutic Botox injections to relax tense muscles

  • Restorative treatments if worn or damaged teeth are affecting your bite
    And, of course, a full clinical evaluation because here, we don’t guess: we analyze your case before recommending anything.
    No generic solutions. Everything tailored to what you need.
