Chronic jaw pain, headaches, or difficulty chewing may be more than just a passing issue—they could be signs of Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD). At Boppana Dental Care, we offer specialized care and custom dental splints to relieve TMJ discomfort and restore healthy jaw function.
TMD refers to a group of conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects your jawbone to your skull. Dysfunction in this joint can lead to pain, limited jaw movement, and other uncomfortable symptoms.
Custom-made occlusal splints (also known as night guards or bite guards) are a non-invasive and effective solution to manage TMD symptoms, reduce stress on the joint, and improve jaw alignment.

Causes can include jaw injury, teeth grinding, arthritis, stress, or bite misalignment. Often, multiple factors contribute to TMD.
Not at all. Our splints are custom-made for your mouth, ensuring comfort and a secure fit—most patients adjust within a few days.
In most cases, no. Non-surgical treatments like splints, physiotherapy, and bite adjustments are effective in relieving symptoms.
Usage depends on the severity of your condition. Some wear it only at night, others during the day as well. We tailor the plan to your needs.
