TMJ & TMD Treatment

Our commitment to your oral health includes any issues or discomfort you may be having within your jaw joint, or TMJ. Dr. Paes is specially trained to treat temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) using the best that modern dentistry has to offer. We understand how disruptive and frustrating jaw pain can be. In many patients, TMD leads to chronic tension headaches, jaw clicking and other symptoms that affect one’s quality of life. To ensure your jaw joint is restored to healthy and comfortable function with general dentistry, choose Town Center Dental of LaGrange for TMJ & TMD treatment in Lagrangeville, Poughkeepsie and the surrounding areas.

Jaw Pain Relief

When the jaw joint and its surrounding muscles undergo excessive stress or tension, it can create problems within your bite and your dental health. In a large majority of cases, TMJ issues are brought on by teeth grinding or a clenching habit. Since many of these patients grind their teeth while they sleep, a custom nighttime mouthguard can be an excellent solution to prevent worn teeth. It will also reduce unnecessary strain on the jaw joint. If your TMD is caused by a misaligned bite, it may be necessary to undergo orthodontic treatment to get jaw pain relief.

This place is awesome! My son got this super nice hygienist named Mary Ellen and he said that he was going to give this place a good review too because of her! 5 stars, my son is no longer afraid of the dentists office after he switched dentists. I have always had dental anxiety but they're so nice & gentle that I will definitely come back again!

I had been putting off a dental implant for over a year - finally decided to go have it done. Absolutely NO pain whatsoever! Not sure how it’s possible - but Dr. Pais has a kind demeanor and managed the whole process without pain, including the next day. I felt nothing! Don’t put it off - I’d highly recommend Dr. Pais for the procedure!
Irish C.
I was so scared to get a tooth extraction and implants but everyone was so calming and reassuring during the entire procedure. The doctor told me about each step as he went; the nurse was so kind and gentle. It barely hurt at all! They did a fantastic job.

The office runs on time, I was taken back not minutes after my arrival. My hygienist Jordan was excellent. She was thorough, meticulous and explained everything she was doing. Dr. Paes was great too, addressed my concerns and gave me reasonable plans going forward. I will definitely be staying as a permanent patient at Town Center Dental.

Town Central of Lagrange is a Wonderful facility. I just had my first painless root canal done. Everyone there is kind and the place is immaculate. Would definitely recommend anyone.
Carla G.
When I say I’m scared of the dentist I’m scared. I recently had my wisdom teeth removed with iv sedation 4 days ago. The surgeon and his assistant were amazing. They made me feel very comfortable. After the surgery of course I needed some down time that day and the next morning I was a little sore. With the medicine prescribed to me I only feel some soreness but I was able to take care of my 4 kids with no problem. I recommend Town Center Dental 100%.
Kay D.
