Have you been sticking your head in the sand, so to speak, and just completely dismissing your TMJ disorder? If so, of course, our Virginia Beach, VA team understands fully that sometimes you just don’t want to deal with a problem, whether related to your oral health or otherwise! However, we want you to remember that though it may feel nice to pretend to remain blissfully unaware of the existing issue and possible consequences to follow, it is far better to act. Consider a handful of reasons you should come in soon, treat the issue, and protect your jaw health.
#1: It’s Not Going To Reverse Itself
We know that you often think oral health issues will reverse themselves. After all, other issues associated with your health often go away! A cold heals up, your cut heals itself, and so on and so forth. Unfortunately, once TMJs are not doing well, they usually stay that way or worsen. Remember, you use your jaw joints all the time, every day, so you’re really going to need treatment to help them get better.
#2: It Will Definitely Cause Frustrating Symptoms
We can almost guarantee you that if you don’t begin treating your TMJ disorder soon, you will begin noticing more and more frustrating symptoms that you will wish you’d avoided. Unless you’re extremely interested in having headaches, dealing with a popping jaw, shoulder aches, local pain, and more, choose treatment!
#3: It Can Make Daily Life More Difficult
If you cannot use your TMJs without pain and reduced motion, you’re going to have trouble eating, talking, etc. Don’t deal with daily difficulty! Instead, seek TMJ treatment with us!
#4: We Can Help You So Easily
All you have to do is wear a comfortable mouthguard when you go to bed. See? It’s worth it.
#5: It’s Not Something To Be Afraid Of
There may be some part of you that figures if you just ignore TMJ disorder, it’s better for you emotionally because you’re just too scared to find out what’s going on. However, we remind you, there’s nothing to be afraid of. All that’s going on is that your jaw joints are tired and possible strained. They need to rest. When you see us and receive TMJ treatment, we make that possible. We may also offer other suggestions to help the issue stop. The only detail to worry about is ignoring TMJ problems for the aforementioned reasons!
