My patients often confuse TMJ with TMD.

TMJ is the Temporal Mandibular Joint whereas TMD is Temporal Mandibular Disorder.

We all have the joint but many of us also have the disorder.                               

TMD is not just one disease but a group of disorders that can be painful affecting the joint or the muscle of chewing

TMD commonly affects twice as many women than men.

After an extended period of time that we have been closed for routine dental procedure Dentists on Bloor is getting ready for our big reopening. At this time I want to let you know what we are doing to make it safe for both our staff and our patients

Did you know that the condition of your oral health can impact the health of the rest of your body? The mouth is connected to the respiratory and digestive system, which means any bacteria from the mouth can easily travel to these organs and cause infections or other medical problems. This makes it imperative to maintain good oral health, for which you need to see a dentist regularly.
