TMD Treatments in Port Coquitlam
Comprehensive solutions for jaw pain and protection
Find relief from TMD symptoms with personalized treatment options
Living with TMD (temporomandibular disorder) doesn't have to define your days. Jaw pain, headaches and facial discomfort can steal the joy from simple moments like sharing a meal or laughing with friends. At Encore Dental Clinic in Port Coquitlam, we understand how TMD affects your life, and we're here to help you reclaim your comfort with solutions that truly work.
You might know Botox from cosmetic treatments, but in dentistry, we use it as a powerful therapeutic tool. When TMD causes grinding, clenching, migraines or facial pain, Botox gently relaxes the overworked muscles that create your discomfort. The relief feels natural because your face still moves and expresses normally—you'll just feel so much better.
We know you're busy, so treatments take less than 30 minutes. Our gentle approach uses ultra-fine needles, so most patients describe the sensation as barely noticeable. You can head straight back to work or your daily routine. Within a few days, you'll start feeling the difference, with full relief building over two weeks. Most patients enjoy three to six months of comfort before considering their next treatment.

Relief, support, and protection for your jaw

Sports guards to preserve your smile during contact sports
Love playing hockey or practicing jiu-jitsu? We admire your dedication to staying active, and we want to help you protect that beautiful smile while you pursue what you love. A custom sports guard gives you confidence to play your hardest without worrying about dental injuries.
Your guard will fit securely and comfortably, never sliding around when you need protection most. It absorbs impact that could otherwise chip, crack or knock out teeth. It also shields your jaw and soft tissues from trauma. You'll still be able to communicate clearly with teammates and breathe easily during intense moments. Most important, you can focus on your game instead of protecting your teeth.

Custom night guards that protect your teeth while you sleep
If you wake up with a sore jaw or your partner mentions grinding sounds at night, a custom night guard can transform your sleep and your mornings. Unlike the bulky, uncomfortable options from the drugstore, our guards fit like they were made just for you—because they are.
We create impressions of your unique smile to craft a guard that stays put all night. The high-quality materials feel smooth and comfortable, encouraging you to actually wear it consistently. Your teeth, jaw and the soft tissues in your mouth all benefit from this gentle protection. Better yet, you'll sleep more soundly, and so will your partner.
TMD treatment vs. cosmetic dentistry
While cosmetic treatments like whitening and veneers help you love your smile's appearance, TMD treatment focuses on function and how you feel day to day. We're addressing pain, protecting your teeth from damage, and helping you get back to enjoying life's simple pleasures without discomfort. Think of it as investing in your daily wellbeing rather than just your appearance.
We've learned that TMD rarely responds well to one-size-fits-all solutions. Your symptoms are unique and your treatment should reflect that. When we combine therapeutic Botox with custom night guards, we're addressing TMD from multiple angles to give you the best possible relief.
If you're active in contact sports, we'll make sure your treatment plan includes a protective sports guard, too. After all, there's no point in treating your TMD symptoms if a sports injury sets you back.
Every journey with us starts with a conversation. We'll listen to your symptoms, understand how TMD affects your daily life, and learn about your goals. Then we'll design a treatment plan that fits your needs and your lifestyle. Your comfort and safety guide every decision we make, and we're with you every step of the way toward lasting relief.
