Temporomandibular joint
If your jaw hurts, your day hurts too.
TMJ and bruxism diagnosis and treatment led by Dr. Eduardo Guzmán — night guards, dental Botox and clinical follow-up.
TMJ disorders and nighttime bruxism cause jaw pain, tension headaches, tooth wear and, in advanced cases, structural problems. At Nüve we address it from several angles: bite and joint analysis, custom night guards, dental Botox when applicable, and postural education — all under the direction of a dentist who understands the full mechanics of your mouth.

Frequently asked questions
Can TMJ be cured?+
In many cases, yes — with the right plan, pain disappears or significantly reduces. In other cases we manage it so it doesn't disrupt your daily life. Every case is different, which is why we evaluate first.
Is a night guard alone enough?+
For many patients, yes — especially if bruxism is the issue. For more complex cases we combine it with dental Botox or physical therapy. We tell you what you need at the evaluation.
Why a dentist and not a physical therapist?+
Because the origin is usually the bite and dental joint. A dentist trained in TMJ can diagnose and treat the cause, not just the muscular symptom.
How quickly will I feel better?+
With a night guard, most feel relief within 2–4 weeks. With dental Botox, between 5–10 days after application.
How much does it cost?+
It depends on your plan. We give you a clear quote after evaluation and offer accessible payment plans.
