What to do if your teeth are shifting with permanent retainers and you have TMJ

Are your teeth shifting even with permanent retainers, and you're experiencing TMJ symptoms? In this video, we dive into why this might be happening, especially if you've had orthodontics and expansion. We explore the root causes, including tongue posture, lip and cheek ties, bite alignment, and the size of your mouth. Discover how an uneven bite can destabilize your teeth and how muscle imbalances from lip and tongue ties can contribute to ongoing issues. We also discuss how tension in your jaws, neck, and shoulders often indicates a need for more space to allow your teeth to settle into a comfortable, neutral position. Learn about our approach to treating cases like yours, which typically begins with a bite splint to find that ideal, comfortable jaw alignment before proceeding with expansion and orthodontics. If you're struggling with shifting teeth and TMJ discomfort, this video offers valuable insights into understanding and addressing these complex issues for lasting relief and a stable bite.
