What is TMJ Disorder? TMJ disorder is a group of degenerative conditions involving the temporomandibular joint and its surrounding muscles. This area is responsible for the jaw movement necessary to talk and eat. The joint slides and rotates just in front of your ear, connecting the temporal bone side of the skull with the mandible lower jaw.
TMJ disorder can fall into one of three categories:. No one knows the exact cause of TMJ disorder. However, TMJ disorder does affect twice as many women as men. The nature of the pain varies, and can worsen with fatigue. For patients who have suffered a serious accident like this, chances are they have dislocated their jaw bilaterally or unilaterally. In addition to physical therapy, treatment with an intraoral orthotic will most likely benefit the patient.
This orthotic addresses the jaw dislocation and aims to conservatively treat the patient. If you have any questions about your neck pain and think it may be related to your jaw, please contact Dr. Klein and schedule your consultation today — The relationship of whiplash injury and temporomandibular disorders: a narrative literature review.

Khullar and his team spends time talking to you and explaining the procedures in detail. I would highly recommend this clinic to all my friends, family and physician peers.
Keep up the great work!! My last procedure was a root canal and two crowns. I was given plenty of time to relax, and because of the expertise and gentle care from Dr. Khullar and his team I actually slept through the entire procedure!
Khullar stayed after hours to ensure that I was comfortable and answered all my concerns. I travel an hour round trip to see Dr. Khullar and would encourage anyone else to do the same. His team, especially Jessica and Trish, make everything from insurance to payments to assisting in my dental care a surprisingly pleasant experience.
You really can't say that about most dentists. Several of my family members are now patients at DK Dental, and we are the most satisfied we have ever been with our dental care! Khullar and his team are so polite and fun to be around, it makes my visit enjoyable and relaxing. My mouth has done a degree turn thanks to Dr. He made me feel that every visit and every dollar was worth my wonderful new smile.
My life is much better without the pain of cavities. I feel free from the stress of bad teeth and bad gums. Khullar is one of my hero's, and his team is so nice and caring! Khullar and his team are friendly and take excellent care of my family's teeth.
The office is equipped with the technology needed to stay current with new advances in dentistry. They are local and schedule around our busy lifestyle with a family seven. K and his team are very helpful with scheduling what needs to be taken care of first.
They have worked hard with us to figure out what insurance would pay and help us figure out payment options. Thank you guys for all your help, our family is pain free and have healthy teeth because of your hard work.
What I like most is their friendly and professional assistance and the manner in which they care for their patients. Most of my visits required lengthy work. Khullar and his team made me feel very comfortable and at ease and all of my dental work was done with little or no pain or discomfort. He and his staff are the friendliest and most enjoyable people anyone could be around and this so important in a medical setting.
Khullar and his team are always very cooperative and helpful in answering my questions. Everyone in his office is always cheerful and friendly. They always remember me from visit to visit! I was pleasantly surprised when I first walked into Dr. Khullar's office. He uses the latest high tech dental equipment, and he is fully staffed with qualified and friendly people.
On the day Dr. K told me it would take two hours sitting in the dental chair for the first phase of my tooth implant, I told him, no way! But he and his nurse worked in such an expert and gentle manner that I made it through the procedure just fine.
The cost was less too. Khullar has done extensive work on my teeth the past couple of years, and from my point of view, he is among the best dentists to be found anywhere! The best part of Dr.
