What is Temporomandibular Joint Disorder?

The temporomandibular joints connect the jawbone to the skull. They are one of the most complex joints in the human body, and a disorder with these joints can have numerous symptoms. While the exact causes of these disorders are not well known, there are a range of effective solutions. At Family Dentistry of Knoxville, we can create custom mouthpieces to reduce the complications of TMJ disorders. Our dentists create custom molds of your mouth to ensure that your dental appliance fits perfectly.
Should I Schedule Regular Dental Cleanings?

By coming in regularly, you do more than just get a great dental cleaning. You allow us to spot trouble early. Many dental problems do not show symptoms until they have reached the more advanced stages. When patients only visit the dentist when they run into dental problems, it is known as crisis treatment. While these individuals may feel they are saving money, they are actually losing money in the long run.
Why Do Dental Practitioners Take X-Rays?

There are many different diseases of the teeth and surrounding tissues which cannot be seen with a dental examination. X-rays can reveal the following: tumors, cysts, abscesses, developmental abnormalities, infections in the bone, and small areas of decay between the teeth or below existing fillings. X-rays allow dentists to find and treat dental problems early on in order to save patients time, money and unnecessary discomfort. We encourage you to take advantage of the many benefits x-rays have to offer!
How Can I Prevent Cavities?

To help prevent cavities, schedule regular teeth cleaning appointments, floss at least once a day, and always spend three minutes brushing your teeth. This period of time will rid your mouth of the bacteria that destroys your tooth enamel. However, do not brush too hard. It only takes a small amount of pressure to remove plaque and bacteria from teeth. In addition, watch your sugar intake and brush your teeth, or rinse out your mouth, after every meal.
