At TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of the South Shore, our specialized team understands the impact that Meniere’s Disease can have on your quality of life, and we are here to provide effective treatment options to alleviate your symptoms and improve your overall well-being.

Meniere’s Disease is a chronic disorder of the inner ear that affects balance and hearing. It is characterized by recurring episodes of vertigo (a spinning sensation), hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and a feeling of fullness or pressure in the affected ear. These symptoms can be debilitating and significantly impact your daily activities, making it challenging to maintain a normal lifestyle.

At our center, we recognize that Meniere’s Disease can have various underlying causes, one of which is temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. The TMJ is the joint connecting your jawbone to your skull, and when it is misaligned or not functioning correctly, it can contribute to the development or exacerbation of Meniere’s Disease symptoms. Through our specialized TMJ and dental services, we aim to address the root causes of your condition and provide targeted treatment for Meniere’s Disease.

Our expert team at the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of the South Shore will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the specific factors contributing to your Meniere’s Disease symptoms. We will examine your dental and TMJ health, considering factors such as bite alignment, jaw joint function, and muscle imbalances. By identifying and addressing any TMJ-related issues, we can provide you with a comprehensive treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs.

Our treatment options may include TMJ therapy, which involves the use of custom oral appliances to correct the alignment of your jaw and alleviate TMJ dysfunction. Additionally, we may recommend specific exercises to improve jaw muscle function, stress management techniques to reduce tension, and lifestyle modifications to minimize triggers and support your overall well-being.
