Dentistry in Malibu and Simi Valley

Do you have chronic headaches? Earaches? Pain in your face, neck, jaw, shoulders? Does you jaw click or pop, or does it not open and close properly? Any of these symptoms could indicate that your jaws are misaligned, a condition called TMJ dysfunction - which stands for temporomandibular joint dysfunction.

Misaligned jaw joints irritate surrounding muscles and nerves, leading to pain, teeth grinding, and other nagging problems. If Dr. Perkins finds that you suffer with this condition, he may recommend non-surgical TMJ therapy. We can correct many cases of TMJ dysfunction with oral splints or building up teeth to realign the bite. These conservative therapies have led to great success for many of our patients. Not sure if TMJ therapy through the dentist is right for you? Ask yourself two questions. What have you got to lose? What have you to gain?

Then call Dr. Perkins in Malibu to schedule your TMJ therapy consultation. Our state-of-the-art dental office serves patients from Malibu, Simi Valley, and Beyond.
