While dealing with a jaw disorder is an ordeal, treatment doesn’t have to be. At Sonterra Dental, we offer San Antonians reliable and sophisticated solutions to TMJ disorder symptoms, powered by the latest technology and realized with specialized remedies. Our dentists stay up-to-date on the latest care strategies, ensuring you have the most cutting-edge options for jaw pain.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services estimates that over 10 million people in the U.S. have temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD). Why is it just an estimate? TMD takes many forms and can affect everyone differently, causing symptoms including:
Any of these symptoms could disrupt your life. Eating, sleeping, and talking are all harder. Difficulty performing basic tasks, combined with chronic pain and tiredness, can start to affect your physical and emotional well-being. Fortunately, helping patients become their best selves is Sonterra Dental’s purpose. Our TMJ specialists in San Antonio can provide care that not only alleviates your symptoms but also enhances your quality of life.
Because TMJ/TMD is unique for each individual, our general dentists and pain experts create treatment plans that are customized to your experience. It’s the same detail- and patient-oriented approach we bring to every service we provide. Who says your jaw pain consultation and treatment can’t feel like a trip to an elite spa?
At our plush office in northern San Antonio, you can find peace and relief while we address your jaw and tooth pain. Our services are tailored to you, as if you were our only patient. From TMJ exercises to orthodontic treatment like Invisalign® to lifestyle tips, we can create a special jaw health regimen for you.
A significant cause of jaw pain is teeth grinding and jaw clenching, especially during sleep. This is its own condition called bruxism, but it can lead to TMD. The question is how to stop grinding teeth in your sleep. After all, you aren’t conscious to stop yourself.
In reality, you can solve teeth grinding and clenching in your sleep thanks to a dental night guard. This bruxism treatment forces your jaw to relax and prevents your teeth from coming in contact with each other. Rather than rely on inexact night guards you buy at the store, our bruxism dentists can create one that is custom-fitted to your bite. An exact fit ensures you get effective treatment.
Recover restful nights, revive productive days, and reclaim peace of mind with Dr. Woods Woolwine, Dr. Kara Tapangan, Dr. Nancy Duque, and Dr. Alexis Ruiz at Sonterra Dental. Take the power back from TMJ disorder. From elite mouth guards for grinding teeth to custom therapies for TMD/TMJ pain, our San Antonio dentists provide care that’s a cut above the rest. Contact us today by phone at 210-341-3222 or online to book a jaw pain appointment.
Hahn is the absolute best Dental hygienist! She is so sweet and friendly and remembers everything about me and my family! I highly recommend her. Dr. T was so impressive and knowledgeable. We addressed things that have never been addressed in regards to my dental needs. Highly recommend her!

Amazing!!! The BEST experience I’ve ever had at a dentist office. Not to mention, they have all sorts of things to make your visit more comfortable - pillows, weighted blankets, headphones, etc. but the staff? The staff is WONDERFUL! Highly recommended.
