Sleep Apnea

TMJ Disorder Treatment

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder involves problems with the chewing muscles and joints that connect the lower jaw to the skull. Night guards like the NTI-tss Plus™ relieve symptoms of the condition by repositioning the jaw. These night guards can be custom-fitted for maximum effectiveness.

With root canal therapy, Dr. Carpenter can treat your infected tooth without extracting it. Modern dental techniques make root canal therapy similar to getting a filling, and you can expect a comfortable experience. Root canal therapy can relieve pain, and restore normal biting and chewing.

"We have been coming to Dr. Carpenter for several years now after seeing dentists that lacked good patient relationships. Dr. Carpenter is patient with those who fear going to the dentist (that's me), explains what needs to be done and provides different options for treatment. Worth the trek from the city!"
