Can TMD Ruin Your Sleep? A Dental Sleep Medicine Expert Explains

In this episode of TMJ Talks, Fight TMJ speaks with Dr. Carly Jacobs, DMD, a dental sleep medicine expert, about the relationship between TMD, sleep, bruxism, oral appliances, and chronic jaw pain. We discuss why many TMD patients struggle with sleep, how clenching and grinding may affect symptoms, what oral appliances are designed to do, and why patients who have been dismissed or bounced between providers deserve a more multidisciplinary approach to care. This conversation is especially helpful for anyone experiencing jaw pain, poor sleep, teeth grinding, or uncertainty about where to go next. 🎧 Listen to the full interview to learn what TMD patients should know before their next appointment.
