Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction Syndrome (TMJ) is a common condition affecting a wide variety of people. TMJ is characterized by severe headaches, jaw pain of varying degrees, grinding teeth, and an intermittent ringing in the ears. The vast majority of TMJ sufferers are unaware that the root cause of these problems is something that a dentist can effectively treat. The symptoms of TMJ are debilitating and can greatly interfere with everyday life. The comfort and general well being of the patient are at the heart of the dental practice, so pain relief is the first consideration of the dentist. Our dental team are able to test, diagnose, and devise an immediate plan to treat the underlying causes of the TMJ disorder.

What Causes Jaw Pain?
The most common cause of jaw pain is due to an injury or abnormality affecting the joint hinging your jaw, called the temporomandibular joint. It’s a problem called a temporomandibular joint disorder or TMD or TMJ and is estimated to affect nearly 10 million people in the United States alone.

Several different things can cause TMJ as it can be due to the muscles controlling jaw movement becoming painful, or because of injury to the jaw joint. Excessively stimulating the jaw joint can cause jaw pain, and sometimes the disc that helps to cushion jaw movements becomes displaced or damaged. This disc can also become affected by arthritis.

What’s Considered a Dental Emergency?
If you knock a tooth out, you know immediately that you need urgent dental care. But an emergency isn’t always so cut-and-dried. If you don’t feel much pain, maybe you can wait a few days to visit your dentist. But if you experience more severe tooth pain or pain in your gums or jaw, don’t hesitate to call your dentist.

You can exacerbate your problems by waiting. Dental issues rarely go away on their own. You need the best dental care. Symptoms and conditions that constitute an immediate dental emergency include:

  • Bleeding from your mouth. If your gums or inner cheeks are bleeding and won’t stop, that’s a condition that requires 24-hour emergency dental care or a trip to the nearest emergency room. Try to stop the bleeding, but you need urgent dental care to ease the swelling and pain.
  • A broken tooth. If a tooth has been knocked out entirely or a piece has broken off, you definitely need emergency dental care. Find the tooth that fell out, put it in saline or milk, and get to your dentist or emergency room. If you don’t act quickly, you may lose the tooth forever.
  • A loose or detached crown or filling. If a filling or crown falls out or even becomes loose, you feel the pain immediately, since now your tooth pulp is unprotected and exposed. Even a breath can cause pain. You may have a metallic taste. Get to an emergency dental facility for treatment. Otherwise, you may need a root canal.
  • Nerve pain. Pain from an exposed nerve in your tooth is intense. It’s constant and may even be throbbing. You need urgent dental care to save the tooth. If the pain suddenly disappears, that’s a sign the tooth nerves are dead or dying.
  • Any swelling around your mouth. Inflammation signals a problem. You won’t know why your mouth is swelling until you get in to see your dentist, who can examine you with an experienced eye. It may be an abscessed tooth or something even more severe.
  • A tooth with an abscess. An abscess is an infection beneath your tooth. It can cause difficulty in breathing, eating, and drinking. Since infections can attack nearby teeth, seek immediate emergency dental care.
  • Severe tooth decay. If the cavity is left untreated, it can damage the tooth pulp without the possibility of restoration. When tooth decay is beyond what can be treated with a root canal or dental fillings, emergency tooth extraction will be required.
  • Some food stuck in your mouth. Bits of popcorn, shells, or candy can get stuck between your teeth or between your teeth and gums. It can irritate your gums, causing pain and swelling. If you can’t reach it, see your dentist for emergency toothache relief.
  • Pain without a known cause. When you’re feeling acute or dull pain, and you don’t know the cause of the pain, you need urgent dental care. Pain always signals a health issue, and if you don’t know the reason, your dentist has to make a diagnosis before it can be treated.

Do you feel your teeth are a little shorter than you’d like, or your smile appears “gummy”? Our dental provider can give you a wider, more symmetrical smile through a crown lengthening procedure. The dentist removes excess gum or bone tissue during this treatment, reveals more of your natural tooth, and creates a more even gum line.

You may also need crown lengthening if you require a restorative dental procedure, such as fixing a broken tooth or getting a porcelain crown. If you have any questions about crown lengthening or if you’d like Dr. Bokser to review your options, contact our dental center today to schedule an appointment.

What is a Crown Lengthening Procedure?
Crown Lengthening Mouth Only
Crown lengthening is a common surgical procedure performed by Dr. Bokser, who will extend the height or size of the portion of the tooth that is visible above the gum line.
Crown lengthening in Astoria is typically performed to improve the health of the gum tissue or prepare your mouth for certain restorative procedures – for example, if not enough of the tooth sticks out above the gum line to support a filling or crown. You may also consider crown lengthening if your smile can be described as “gummy,” where the teeth are covered with excess gum tissue.

Crown lengthening is a common surgical procedure performed by Dr. Bokser, who will extend the height or size of the portion of the tooth that is visible above the gum line. The doctor will typically use local anesthesia and then gradually reshape or remove the excess gum and bone tissue to expose the natural tooth.
