    HAWTHORNE, CA, September 21, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Hawthorne dentist, Dr. Yashari, is now offering diagnosis and treatment services for patients with symptoms of TMJ disorders. TMJ disorders refer to the conditions and diseases that affect the temporomandibular joint, which is the joint that attaches your jaw to your skull.

Common symptoms of TMJ include:
- Difficulty chewing or pain while chewing
- Facial pain that is dull or aching in nature
- Tenderness or pain in the jaw joint
- A jaw that locks open or closed
- Clicking, popping or grating sounds accompanied by pain or discomfort in the joint

Dr. Yashari, a Hawthorne family dentistry expert, will start by performing a complete oral exam to identify areas of concern. Dental X-rays and images might be needed to identify specific areas of injury or damage. TMJ treatments are recommended based on the cause and contributing factors of the disorder. Treatments can include lifestyle changes, cold or warm compresses, medications, physical therapy or surgery.

Other treatments offered by Dr. Yashari's practice include dental exams, cleanings, digital X-rays, teeth whitening, veneers, Invisalign, dental implants, bridges, crowns, fillings, dentures, root canal treatments, oral surgery, sleep apnea treatments, family dentistry, bone grafting and emergency dentistry.
