TMJ (or TMD) is one of the most common disorders in the United States today with over 60 million people suffering from it. Issues can arise on either one or both sides of your jaw, which if left untreated, may cause major problems down the road. And while some TMJ issues may be temporary, lasting from a few days to a few weeks, there is always a possibility of your symptoms returning. Sadly, many people can suffer persistent TMJ symptoms for months or even years. For the people of Anchorage, AK and surrounding areas we have the solution for you \u2014 just come see Dr. Kendall, one of the few gneuromuscular dentists in Alaska!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Dr. Kendall has received extensive training in the treatment of TMJ at Occlusion Connections, an advanced teaching center upholding neuromuscular and gnathic principles at their highest levels. GNM is a blended advanced approach implementing both the G (gnathic) + NM (neuromuscular) principles of dentistry. Dr. Kendall has completed all of their advanced courses related to the diagnosis and treatment of this difficult condition.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background fusion-parallax-none hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling lazyload\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-padding-top:80px;--awb-padding-bottom:80px;--awb-background-size:cover;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" data-bg=\"\/x\/lc-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/PatternBackground.jpg\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-center fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"width:104% !important;max-width:104% !important;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:50%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.84%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.84%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"lazyframe\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/HqfRF0ad16E?feature=oembed&rel=0&cc_lang_pref=en&cc_load_policy=1&showinfo=0&modestbranding=1&enablejsapi=1&wmode=opaque\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-vendor=\"youtube\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-title=\" \"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/HqfRF0ad16E\/maxresdefault.jpg\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_2_5 2_5 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:40%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:4.8%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:0px;--awb-spacing-left-large:4.8%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><h2>TMJ Symptoms<\/h2>\n<p>TMJ (or TMD) is a very common condition and there are a few symptoms you should be aware of.

Tension headaches are often caused by TMJ because the muscles in the head partner with those in the jaw. TMJ has also been linked with migraines through irritation or overstimulation of the trigeminal nerve, known as a key trigger point in migraines.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In order to achieve a healthy status, Dr. Kendall will start by relaxing tense muscles in the jaw so you can experience improved comfort. He will use K7 and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to relax your jaw. Taking into account the six dimensions of optimal occlusion we will create a removable appliance, called an orthotic, to correct your jaw position. This process is called Stage 1 Bite Therapy. The orthotic crates a balanced and harmonious bite position.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">After you are comfortable and pain-free, Dr. Kendall will discuss with the best long-term solution to help you stay that way without a dental appliance. We may recommend orthodontics (braces) to further protect your bite and porcelain veneers and crowns to rebuild missing tooth structure; this is referred to as Stage 2. Our ultimate goal is to help you find long-term relief and address the actual etiology causing your pain. Our Anchorage dentists have been helping patients like you, become pain-free for over 20 years. See what they can do for you!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_2_5 2_5 fusion-flex-column\"
