TMJ Dentist, Topeka<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the most painful oral health care concerns a patient can experience is temporomandibular joint dysfunction often called TMJ<\/a> or TMD. TMD may start as clicking or grinding in the temporomandibular joint (the joint that connect your jawbone \u2013 mandible to the rest of your skull), but TMD can lead to extreme pain when opening or closing your mouth, inability to open the mouth wide enough to eat or drink, headaches, neck pain, earaches, and even deafness in extreme cases. Dr. Michel has advanced studies in TMJ dysfunction and treatment through Bio Research prepared him to offer patients non-surgical answers to relieving their TMJ pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Endodontics Root Canal Therapy to Relieve Pain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Endodontics<\/a> is the study and care of the inner tooth (pulp and nerves). Dr. Michel\u2019s years of experience in endodontics make him an ideal choice to relieve pain related to infection of the inner tooth structures. You likely think root canal therapy has to hurt. Root canals have always been the stuff of dentistry nightmares, but innovative care from Dr. Michel will help relieve your pain not cause you more. Most of the pain associated with root canals is caused when the nerve housed inside the root canal is exposed to infection making the tooth extremely sensitive and causing pain. Root Canal Therapy removes the infection, but preserves as much of your natural tooth structure as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Periodontics Gum Disease Therapy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

More than 50% of Americans suffer from some level of periodontal (gum) disease. Gum disease can make eating, drinking, brushing your teeth, and other daily activities painful. More importantly, infection in the gums can spread through the body leading to fever and nausea, gum tissue or bone loss as well as increasing risk of heart disease, blood clot, and stroke. Periodontal therapy<\/a> from Michel Dental will help you return to a healthy, pain free smile. By eliminating the infection and discovering the cause of the infection, Dr. Michel doesn\u2019t just treat your gums. He helps you maintain periodontal health going forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
