How We Can Alleviate Your TMJ Pain:
Mouth Guards
Mouth guards are an essential protective appliance for those with Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMJ/TMD). These specially designed guards not only protect teeth from impact injuries but also provide crucial cushioning to reduce trauma to the mouth, teeth, and jaw - areas particularly sensitive in TMJ/TMD patients.
Night Guards
For patients who experience bruxism, or teeth grinding, our team at Lowes Island Dentistry in Sterling, VA encourages you to be fitted for a night guard. Night guards, or bite guards, help to protect your teeth from crushing and grinding of teeth by providing a protective layer between your teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered a dental emergency?
%402x%20(2).svg){kind=icon}
A dental emergency is any situation that requires immediate attention to alleviate severe pain or to save a tooth. Common dental emergencies include severe toothache, broken or cracked tooth, knocked-out tooth, lost dental filling or crown, and abscess or infection. If you’re unsure if what you’re experiencing constitutes a dental emergency, you can always give us a call at (703) 444-4441 for expert advice, and to schedule an appointment.
What should I do in a dental emergency?
In a dental emergency, it's important to stay calm and act quickly. Contact Lowes Island Dentistry at (703) 444-4441 immediately for professional guidance and to schedule an emergency appointment. While waiting for professional help, you can apply a cold compress to the affected area to reduce swelling and take over-the-counter pain relievers to manage pain.
Can I prevent dental emergencies?
While not all dental emergencies can be prevented, regular checkups and good oral hygiene can significantly reduce the risk. Wearing a mouthguard while playing sports and participating in other strenuous activities, avoiding hard foods that can crack teeth, and not using your teeth as tools can also help prevent dental emergencies.
