Living with jaw pain, headaches, or chronic tension often becomes something you quietly endure. At The Hills Dental Spa, TMJ therapy is built differently. Our approach is highly specialized, non-invasive, and grounded in advanced technology—designed to bring clarity and comfort to patients who’ve often tried everything else.
This isn’t just treatment for the jaw. It’s relief that supports how you live, sleep, and function every day.
What Is TMJ Disorder?
TMJ disorder (or TMD) occurs when the temporomandibular joints—located on each side of the jaw—stop functioning harmoniously. It can cause pain, limited jaw movement, and symptoms that radiate well beyond the mouth.
You may be experiencing TMJ dysfunction if you suffer from:
- ◆ Jaw pain or tightness
- ◆ Headaches or migraines
- ◆ Clicking or popping sounds when opening your mouth
- ◆ Facial tension or pain behind the eyes
- ◆ Neck, shoulder, or upper back discomfort
- ◆ Difficulty chewing or opening your mouth fully
Because TMJ symptoms overlap with so many other conditions, diagnosis and treatment require expertise—and the right tools.
Advanced, Non-Surgical TMJ Treatment
At The Hills Dental Spa, TMJ therapy is powered by digital diagnostics, neuromuscular insight, and a completely non-surgical philosophy. We use advanced computer-based technology to assess your bite, jaw alignment, and muscle activity in real time—so treatment is based on objective data, not guesswork.
Once the source of imbalance is identified, your custom plan may include:
- ◆ Bite realignment or neuromuscular orthotics
- ◆ Occlusal adjustments to eliminate strain
- ◆ Supportive therapy such as Bruxism Treatment or Snore Guards
- ◆ Incorporation into a larger plan such as Full Mouth Reconstruction if needed
All therapy is led by Dr. Kevin Winters, whose decades of clinical and teaching experience in neuromuscular dentistry make him a sought-after provider for complex TMJ cases. We welcome patients seeking TMJ relief from Austin, West Lake Hills, Rollingwood, Lost Creek, and Lakeway, TX.
