Do You Think You Have TMD / TMJ ?

Do you suffer from sharp excruciating pain in and around your jaw and ears? A TMD treatment and full Diagnostic Consultation may be needed to solve your issues! Dr Ian Maratos has decades of experience and post graduate degrees in this specific disorder.

And yes, we treat people from all around Australia and New Zealand who fly in for help at our clinic.

Temporomandibular joint disorders can present with symptoms including pain, swelling, a ‘clicking’ sound or sensation in the jaw, tenderness around the joint that connects your jaw to your skull.  Some patients experience Tinnitus, Vertigo, or migraine – all of which can be debilitating for the sufferer. Often there is a correlation between Grinding Teeth (Bruxing), Snoring and TMD - this may be missed by a regular dentist or general physio, and needs an expert to join the dots....

Some people incorrectly refer to this disorder as "TMJ" (everyone has two of those) actually that is the name of the joint, not the problem.

Even though TMD can arise in a person due to genetics, or even arthritis, the most common cause of TMD is bruxism, a car accident, sporting injury, or fall. At The Snore Fix Doctor, we believe in getting to the root of the problem and adopting a holistic approach to your dental issues and pain management. Dr Ian at The Snore Fix Doctor can help provide a safe TMD treatment that may include a Physiologic Mandibular Advancement Splint (MAS) that will keep your jaw from clenching or grinding, open your airway, and help alleviate your jaw pain, thereby releasing over-burdened muscles and jaw joints.

Schedule a Diagnostic Consultation with Dr Ian, The Snore Fix Doctor, to develop a real plan for a unique TMD treatment tailored to your individual condition that will alleviate your jaw pain, and hopefully transform your life.
