What Is TMJ & Sleep Apnea Treatment?

TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders and sleep apnea are conditions that can significantly affect your daily life and overall health. TMJ disorders cause chronic pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and muscles, while sleep apnea disrupts your breathing during sleep, leading to poor sleep quality and other health issues. At Cosmetic Dentistry of Westchester, we offer a range of non-invasive treatments, including oral appliances and mandibular advancement devices, to alleviate symptoms and address the root causes of these conditions. Our customized treatment plans are designed to provide long-term relief and enhance your well-being.
