Common symptoms associated with Meniere’s Disease include:
- Vertigo and balance issues

- Jaw pain and tightness
Our Meniere’s Disease Treatment Approach
We take a holistic, patient-centered approach to Meniere’s disease, especially when TMJ dysfunction plays a role. Our treatments may include oral appliances to realign the jaw, therapeutic exercises, and complementary therapies to reduce muscle tension and improve jaw stability. By targeting the TMJ’s influence on inner ear health, we strive to alleviate symptoms and enhance your day-to-day comfort.
