TMJ / TMD Treatment
TMJ & Jaw Pain Treatment in Tysons Corner, VA
Chronic jaw pain, clicking, and morning headaches aren't something you have to live with. We diagnose and treat the source of TMJ discomfort.
Relief for your jaw & smile
Understand and treat chronic jaw pain
The temporomandibular joints (TMJ) connect your jaw to your skull, and when they're out of balance the effects can be miserable: chronic jaw pain, clicking or popping, difficulty chewing, facial soreness, and frequent tension headaches. This cluster of symptoms is often called TMD (temporomandibular disorder).
TMJ issues are frequently linked to teeth grinding and clenching (bruxism), stress, or bite misalignment. At Westpark Dental Studio in Tysons Corner, Dr. Seiren Ajineh carefully evaluates your jaw, bite, and teeth to identify what's driving your discomfort — then builds a conservative, effective treatment plan.
Treatment may include a custom night guard to protect your teeth and relax the jaw, bite adjustments, and practical guidance to reduce clenching. Many McLean and Tysons Corner patients find significant relief without invasive procedures.
