Are You Suffering from Persistent Snoring?
TMJ-related snoring is a condition characterized by the dysfunction of the jaw joint, leading to disruptive snoring during sleep. The temporomandibular joint connects the jawbone to the skull, and when it malfunctions, it can cause various symptoms, including snoring. This condition can be caused by various factors, such as teeth grinding (bruxism), jaw misalignment, stress, or injury to the jaw joint.
The symptoms of TMJ-related snoring can be bothersome and can affect both the sufferer and their sleep partner. Snoring is the primary manifestation, often accompanied by loud, irregular noises during sleep, leading to sleep disturbances for the affected person and their partner. Additionally, individuals with TMJ issues may experience jaw pain or tenderness, difficulty opening or closing their mouth fully, clicking or popping sounds when moving the jaw, and headaches upon waking. In severe cases, the jaw may even lock temporarily, causing further discomfort.
Furthermore, TMJ-related snoring can lead to daytime problems, such as chronic fatigue, irritability, and difficulty concentrating due to disrupted sleep patterns. If left untreated, the condition can worsen and may lead to more serious complications, including chronic pain and dental issues.

Courtney McKeon2024-07-11Dr. and staff are incredible! I started my therapy with a 9/10 pain level. I could hardly open my mouth and chewing food was almost impossible. Now I’m pain free and I feel amazing! Would highly recommend to everyone.
Rachel Henschel2024-07-03I’ve had TMJ for years and really needed a second opinion on the current appliance another provider had given me. Dr. Brad Sainsbury and his medical assistant did a very thorough examination and very clearly explained to me the issues I am struggling with. They offered an alternative to the splint I was provided that was changing my bite. Thanks to the care they provided me with, I am now on the way to getting my jaw pain issues resolved and getting my teeth realigned. The staff was extremely personable as well. Victoria was very helpful with explaining the appliance options for me and what pricing looks like. Very thankful for their services!
