Jaw pain, headaches, clicking sounds, or constant tension in your face and neck aren’t things you should have to live with. At Zapzzz Sleep Clinic in Riverside, we provide modern, non-invasive care for TMJ disorders, helping patients find real relief — comfortably and naturally.
With free consultations, advanced scanning, and specialized treatments, we focus on long-term relief, not temporary fixes.
The temporomandibular joints (TMJ) connect your jaw to your skull. When these joints or the surrounding muscles are strained, inflamed, or misaligned, it can lead to temporomandibular disorders.
TMJ can affect how you chew, speak, sleep, and even how often you experience headaches — which is why it’s closely connected to sleep issues and teeth grinding.
TMJ symptoms can vary from person to person, but often include jaw pain or stiffness, clicking or popping sounds when opening or closing the mouth, facial pain or pressure, frequent headaches or migraines, neck and shoulder tension, difficulty chewing, teeth grinding or clenching, and ear pain or ringing.
If these symptoms are affecting your daily comfort or sleep, professional evaluation can help pinpoint the cause.
Ignoring TMJ symptoms can lead to worsening pain, limited jaw movement, increased headaches, damaged teeth from grinding, and disrupted sleep.
Early diagnosis allows for more conservative, effective treatment — often without surgery — helping you protect both your jaw health and overall well-being.
At Zapzzz, we take a personalized approach to TMD care. Your visit starts with a free consultation, where we carefully evaluate your symptoms, jaw function, and bite using state-of-the-art scanning technology.
Based on your diagnosis, we may recommend custom oral appliances or night guards to reduce pressure on the joint, mandibular devices to improve jaw positioning, and to relax overactive muscles and relieve pain, grinding, and tension-related headaches.
Our treatments are designed to be comfortable, effective, and tailored to your lifestyle.
Zapzzz offers Botox treatment specifically for TMD patients experiencing joint disorders, chronic jaw tension, teeth grinding, or frequent headaches.
Botox works by relaxing the muscles that are overworking or clenching, reducing pain and pressure on the jaw joint. Many patients experience significant relief in both jaw discomfort and headache frequency after treatment.
