What is TMJ/TMD Treatment

What Is TMJ/TMD Treatment?

TMJ disorders, commonly referred to as TMD, involve dysfunctions of the jaw joint and the muscles controlling jaw movement. Symptoms can include jaw pain, headaches, earaches, and difficulty opening or closing the mouth. Causes may vary from stress and teeth grinding through to arthritis or a misaligned bite, and understanding the specific cause of your symptoms is crucial for effective treatment. Estimates suggest 10 to 15% of adults experience TMD symptoms at some point.

The Benefits of TMJ/TMD Treatment

Pain Relief

Targeted therapies can significantly reduce or eliminate the jaw pain and the associated symptoms that come with a TMJ disorder day after day for good at last.

Improved Function

Treatment enhances your jaw movement, which makes both chewing and speaking considerably more comfortable day to day once the joint settles down properly.

Preventive Care

Addressing TMJ or TMD early prevents further complications and the deterioration in oral health that untreated cases bring when left alone for too long.

Cause Identified

Understanding the specific cause of your symptoms is crucial, which is why diagnosis comes before any treatment begins on your particular case at all here.

Our Step-by-Step Process

Treatment duration varies, ranging from weeks through to several months.

Request an Appointment
  1. 01

    Initial Consultation

    You meet with our experienced dentists to discuss your symptoms and your full medical history in as much detail as you need to explain.

  2. 02

    Thorough Diagnosis

    A detailed examination, possibly including imaging tests, identifies the cause and severity of your case before any treatment is planned.

  3. 03

    Customized Plan

    Based on that diagnosis, we develop a tailored approach designed to manage your particular condition rather than a standard protocol.

  4. 04

    Therapy Applied

    This may include medication, physical therapy, or oral appliances that work to alleviate your symptoms over the following weeks.

  5. 05

    Follow-Up Care

    Regular check-ins monitor your progress and let us adjust treatment as necessary for optimal results as your jaw begins responding.

Signs You May Need TMJ/TMD Treatment

Consider TMJ/TMD treatment if you recognize any of the following.

Chronic Pain

You experience chronic jaw pain or recurring headaches that have not resolved on their own over time despite rest and self-care.

Chewing Difficulty

You have difficulty chewing, or you notice clicking noises whenever you move your jaw to open or close it again afterward comfortably.

Jaw Locking

You feel jaw stiffness or locking, particularly when trying to open your mouth wide first thing in the morning after waking.

Ear Discomfort

You have earaches with no ear infection behind them, which often traces back to the jaw joint rather than to the ear itself being the source.

What Our Patients Say

  • I had a terrific nerve pain in an upper back molar. I called early morning and received an appointment for 1pm. X-Rays were taken upon my arrival which reflected a cracked tooth. Another older crown next to the molar also was cracked due to a bad habit of grinding my teeth while sleeping. Valencia Aesthetic then booked me a 1pm appointment for the next day. They completed a root canal, saving the original tooth and fitting me with a temporary crown, as well as fitting me with another temporary needed crown adjacent to the cracked tooth. All work was completed that afternoon. They all were caring and professional and I left with very little pain. I highly recommend Valencia Aesthetic, previously known as Fealy Dental, where my family has been patients for the last 30 years.

  • I went in for a broken crown on my lower tooth and was taken care of by Dr. Pham. Dr. Pham and her assistant were able to work on it right away. Dr. Pham had to grind down, remove my old crown, put in a temporary crown. I will be back in close to 3 weeks to have the permanent crown placement. Dr. Pham and her assistant were very professional, friendly, pleasant, and caring. Dr. Pham has provided dental services for me in the past, and she has always provided great, excellent, and caring dental services. The entire dental staff has always been professional, courteous, and friendly. I have been going to Dr. Lawrence Fealy DDS for over 21 years and have had dental works being done by Dr. Fealy and most of his associate dentists. The dental services that I have received from Dr. Fealy and his associate dentists over the many years have been excellent and professional. From my experience, Dr. Fealy has always recruited the best dentists to his office. I would highly recommend Dr. Fealy’s Dental service to everyone.

  • Dr Ryan the endo doctor did a fabulous job fixing a root canal that was botched up by my previous dentist. He was able to find the problem and clear up an infection (that I had in a root for 18 months). The previous dentist told me to wait and it would go away.

  • The best dentist I’ve ever been to. Everyone is so kind and friendly, from the very first person you encounter in the front office. I have some dental anxiety and the dentist and dental assistance explained all the steps of the procedure and checked in with me multiple times to make sure I was doing well. Excellent service all around.

  • I had an emergency dental situation with a severely swollen wisdom tooth and unbearable pain, and I honestly can’t thank Valencia Aesthetic Dentistry enough for what they did for me. I had called multiple places, but no one could accommodate me the same day. Most clinics only offered a consultation, and even after X-rays, I was told I’d have to wait a few days to see a surgeon. Meanwhile, my pain was getting worse by the hour. From the moment I called Valencia Aesthetic Dentistry, the experience was completely different. The front desk team was incredibly caring and understanding. They gave me a same-day appointment, and when I called again a few hours before my appointment saying the pain had become unbearable, they immediately asked me to come in earlier without any hesitation. When I arrived, I met Dr. Peyman, who evaluated my condition and explained that the wisdom tooth needed to be extracted due to the swollen gum covering it. Although the surgeon was only available after a couple of days, seeing the level of pain I was in, he took the initiative to perform the extraction himself. He reassured me that we could stop anytime if the pain was too much, which gave me a lot of confidence to proceed. What stood out the most was his expertise and care — I didn’t feel any pain during the entire procedure. It was smooth, professional, and honestly a huge relief after what I had been going through. After the procedure, not only did I feel immediate relief, but Dr. Peyman also personally followed up with me the next day to check on my recovery. That level of care is rare and truly appreciated. If you’re ever in an emergency dental situation, this is the place to go. They don’t just treat you — they genuinely care about getting you out of pain as quickly as possible. Highly recommend.

  • They are the best dental office in all of Santa Clarita. Everyone there is so kind. So patient. And just so wonderful.
    Cindy M. Google · March 2026
  • I had an amazing experience at this dental office! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. The office was clean, modern, and very calming. Dr. Kafri was amazing, I give him 10/10. The nurse was also amazing but I don’t remember her name unfortunately. Taylor, she did my cleaning, was phenomenal. The dentist took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I was completely comfortable throughout the entire visit. The treatment was gentle, efficient, and truly exceeded my expectations. I left feeling well cared for and confident about my dental health. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled dentist!

  • The staff here are so kind and friendly from the front office staff and hygienists to the specialists.They make every visit feel comfortable and welcoming. My hygienist Carrie is so sweet and does a great job. Dr. Pham is wonderful as my regular dentist and Dr. Rayan recently performed a few complicated root canals for me involving curved roots and he handled it with real skill and care. I can’t recommend this team highly enough.
