Put Your Life Back on Track With TMJ Therapy
You probably don’t think much about your jaw joints, also known as temporomandibular joints (TMJs) – at least not until they cause you discomfort or pain. These joints allow you to open and close your mouth for activities like eating, talking, laughing, and singing. If they become inflamed or irritated – researchers still aren’t certain what causes this – you can experience a great deal of pain.
Fortunately, help is available with a custom oral appliance that gently moves your lower jaw forward. If an exam reveals you have TMJ trouble, our team will take digital impressions and have one of these appliances made for you. Here’s how the process will work:
- Our lab partner will make your appliance and ship it to us.
- You’ll return to our office, and your dentist will make sure it fits properly.
- You’ll wear the appliance while you sleep.
- It will relieve tension on your TMJs so they can begin to heal.
- It will also stop you from grinding teeth, a destructive habit often found in those with a TMJ disorder
- Your TMJ symptoms will begin to lessen and potentially go away altogether.
If you think you could be suffering from TMJ pain, contact My Hometown Dentist to find out more about San Antonio TMJ treatment. Be sure to schedule your next dental cleaning and exam, too.

This was my first visit, and although it was a rather long wait, the dentist was extremely apologetic and very appreciative of my patience. The office staff was very friendly and the hygienist offered me a water while I waited. Dr. Gomez was very thorough and helpful. She was nice enough to call the oral surgeon and make an appointment for me-they were able to take me right away. They didn’t even me charge me for my visit. I know my previous dentist would have! I will definitely be going back to get my teeth cleaned and will be sending my family there as well. I highly recommend them!

No one enjoys going to the dentist, but my experience yesterday with hometown dentist was so pleasurable I won’t mind going back. Thank you so much. I think I have found a new forever dentist . Okay, so now that I have had another appointment, I have come to the conclusion that this is the best dentist anyone could go to. I just had a routine cleaning done and I have to say she was so gentle I almost went to sleep! Thank you Hometown Dental, you guys are fantastic.

My family and I had a great time today with Dr Nicole Granato. She’s so nice and explains everything we need to know about how to keep our mouths healthy. This was the most thorough cleaning and health check I’ve ever had. We’ve already scheduled our next appointment and will keep coming back. Jackie was helping her and was super nice too. The place is clean and the equipment looks very up-to-date.

Nicole was AMAZING and very thorough about everything. Any questioned I had were answered, they were upfront about pricing before any additional appointments were set. I never felt pressured or rushed. I felt very comfortable during my appointment. ALL the staff were amazing. Would recommend 100%. Coming from someone who used to hate the dentist. 10/10 recommend.
Common Questions About TMJ Treatment / Teeth Grinding
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.
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.
You may need ongoing treatment for a TMJ disorder. Fortunately, by wearing a simple appliance, you can prevent teeth grinding, a common cause of TMJ problems. We have helped many patients find the solution to this particularly painful problem. Today, they are enjoying their lives with fewer headaches, earaches, jaw pain, and jaw stiffness
