quiet the jaw pain, headaches, and clicking
The temporomandibular joints connect your jaw to your skull, and when they’re strained or overworked, the results can be miserable: jaw pain, headaches, clicking or popping, earaches, and a jaw that feels tight or even locks. Often, the culprit is nighttime clenching and grinding you don’t even know you’re doing.
Lake Zurich TMJ treatment at Diamond Dental Service starts by finding the real source of your discomfort. Dr. Alma Lombardo examines your bite, jaw movement, and the wear on your teeth to understand what’s driving your symptoms, then recommends conservative, reversible care designed to bring lasting relief.

how we treat TMJ disorder
- Careful diagnosis: We evaluate your bite, jaw function, and tooth wear, using digital imaging when needed, to identify what’s causing your symptoms before recommending treatment.
- A custom night guard: For most patients, a custom-fitted night guard is the first and most effective step. It cushions your teeth and eases pressure on the joint, protecting your teeth from grinding while it relieves strain.
- Conservative, lasting relief: We start with the gentlest effective options and add simple guidance, like soft foods and jaw-relaxing habits during flare-ups, to help your symptoms settle without invasive treatment.
