A full mouth rejuvenation or full mouth reconstruction is a smile makeover plus more. Along with cosmetic work, it also addresses your bite, also known as your occlusion. This is the way the upper and lower teeth come together and is a function of how well your jaw joint works and how well your teeth are placed. A misaligned bite is uncomfortable and is closely interrelated with a misaligned jaw joint. If left untreated, this can lead to more serious complications.
The jaw joint is small, delicate, and very flexible. You can feel it by opening your mouth with a finger placed in front of one ear. This is where the lower jaw (mandible) meets the skull, and it’s a little ball-and-socket joint. Unfortunately, many dentists don’t provide jaw joint services or other forms of neuromuscular dentistry. Luckily, we offerneuromuscular dentistry at our Oakton, VA, office and serve patients in Reston, Vienna, McLean, Great Falls, and the greater Northern Virginia area.

Symptoms of a Jaw Joint Problem
TMD symptoms are many, varied, painful, or at least uncomfortable. They can appear in any combination. The most common and painful symptom is chronic severe headaches, but you might also have anything from earaches to worn teeth to tingling fingers. It’s important to contact your doctor if you are experiencing these symptoms so that you can address them and treat them properly.
Dr. Chung can diagnose and provide TMD treatments for these symptoms. We are proud to utilize the 3D Cone Beam Dental Scanner to assist us in our neuromuscular dentistry treatment. This provides us with high-definition imagery of your mouth and head. This is massively beneficial when planning treatments and procedures.
