Enhancing Your Quality of Life in Calgary & Beyond
Dizziness and vertigo can significantly affect your daily routine, making it challenging to carry out even the simplest tasks. These symptoms may be caused by low blood pressure or Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorder, which occurs when the jaw joint is not functioning correctly.
The TMJ is situated next to the ear and is responsible for connecting the jaw to the skull. When it is not working correctly, it can affect the inner ear and cause dizziness, pressure, popping, and ringing in your ears.
If you experience these symptoms, it’s essential to speak to Dr. Silver to assess if TMJ is the root cause of the issue. Without treatment, TMJ disorder can continue to affect your quality of life.
Other TMJ symptoms can include:
- Jaw pain
- Neck pain
- Muscle pain
- Joint pain
- Lock jaw
- Eye pain
- Headaches
If you live in the Calgary area and think your vertigo may be TMJ-related, call (403) 278-1415 to schedule a free consultation with Dr. Silver. Diagnostic tests can determine whether your bite and TMJ misalignment are causing the issue. Various treatment options are available to restore proper alignment to the jaw and alleviate the painful and limiting symptoms of this neuromuscular disorder.
