TMJ & Jaw Pain Treatment in Mississauga

 Relief from Grinding, Clenching & Jaw Discomfort Starts Here

 Do you wake up with jaw pain, tension headaches, or worn teeth? You may be experiencing TMJ disorder or bruxism—conditions that affect the temporomandibular joint, which connects your jaw to your skull.

At North Star Dentistry, we offer advanced, non-surgical solutions for TMJ pain, nighttime grinding, habitual clenching, and facial muscle tension, all tailored to your unique symptoms and lifestyle.

• Morning jaw stiffness or soreness
• Frequent tension headaches or migraines
• Clicking or popping when opening/closing your mouth
• Masseter muscle spasms or tightness in the cheeks
• Flattened, worn, or chipped teeth
• Neck, shoulder, or facial pain
• Difficulty chewing or jaw locking
   

If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to live with it.

TMJ dysfunction can result from a number of factors, including:

• Nighttime grinding (sleep bruxism)
• Daytime jaw clenching (often stress-related)
• Bite misalignment
• Muscle hyperactivity
• Joint inflammation or injury
   

At North Star, we take a comprehensive approach to diagnose and treat the root cause—not just the symptoms.

A gentle, non-invasive treatment that helps reduce inflammation, relax tight muscles, and stimulate healing around the jaw joint. Patients often feel relief within a few sessions.

Therapeutic Botox injections help relax overactive jaw muscles (especially the masseter) and reduce pain caused by chronic grinding or tension. Bonus: many patients notice a more contoured jawline too.

We design personalized night guards and bite splints to reduce strain on your jaw joint and prevent tooth wear. These appliances are made using digital scans for the perfect fit.

We also fabricate deprogrammers that help the misaligned jaw to return to its normal position. 

 Let’s help you sleep better, chew comfortably, and live pain-free. Relief is just one visit away.  

P.S.You don’t have to live with jaw pain. Let’s bring ease back to your smile—with care that’s as gentle as it is effective.
